The melting point of the main component is 171 °C.

Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, the mean melting range of test substance was 165 - 175 °C and the melting point of the main component was determined to be 171 °C.
Executive summary:

The melting temperature of the test substance was determined in accordance with the EU Method A.1. in compliance with GLP.

 

The test performed by using DSC, Mettler-Toledo TA8000, in a standard aluminium pan with a small hole, with a heating rate of 10 K/min.

 

Under the test conditions, the mean melting range of test substance was 165 - 175 °C and the melting point of the main component was determined to be 171 °C.

Description of key information

The mean melting range of test substance was 165-175 °C and the melting point of the main component was determined to be 171 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
