Additional information

On the basis of available data from study report, the melting point determination of test chemical was done as per the test guideline OECD 102. The method followed was according to Capillary/metal block. The Mean melting temperature range was determine to be 69 °C - 72.3°C at 965.6hPa.

In a supporting study from reliable sources such as authoritative database and handbook, the melting point of test chemical was determined to be in the range of 73°C to 75°C.

Additional study from reliable sources indicates the melting point of test chemical as 75°C.

Based on available data from reliable sources such as authoritative database and handbook, the melting point of test chemical was determined to be 72.8°C.

For the test chemical, the melting point of test chemical was determined to be 72.5°C.
