Conclusions:
Experimental study was performed according to OECD 102 wherein Freezing point of test chemical was found to be -2.54°C at 969 hPa
Executive summary:

A study was performed to determine the Freezing point of test chemical at respective atmospheric pressure.

The study was conducted as per OECD 102 Adopted 27.07.95 using Micro LAB Interface FS–524 data

generation system and thermostat as temperature detection system.

The Mean Freezing Point was observed to be -2.54°C at 969.0 hPa.
