Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Results and discussion

Melting / freezing point
Melting / freezing pt.:
>= 41.3 - <= 68.6 °C

Any other information on results incl. tables

The melting point was determined by Hogg A S (1997) using differential scanning calorimetry, and two distinct peaks were observed in the trace between 41.3 and 68.6°C. It is probable that one peak corresponds to melting of the BDP, while the other corresponds to melting of the impurities.
