Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
118.5 °C

The DSC was carried out by Mettler-Toledo TA8000. For a preliminary test on thermal stability a DSC in a closed glass pan was performed. At 119°C a melting of the test substance and at about 225°C an exotermic effect was observed. The determination of the melting point / melting range by DSC was carried out in closed standard aluminium pan (Table 1). 


 

Conclusions:
The mean melting point of the test substance, desmedipham, is 118.5°C.
Executive summary:

The melting point of desmedipham was carried out by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The melting point of desmedipham is 118.5°C.

Description of key information

The melting point of desmedipham was carried out by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The melting point of desmedipham is 118.5°C.
