no
Conclusions:
The melting point determination of test chemical was done following OECD Guideline 102 and according to the metal block capillary method. The test was conducted in replicates and Mean melting temperature range was determined to be 105.1-108.6°C at 976.1hPa.
Executive summary:

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 determined to be 105.1-108.6°C at 976.1 hPa.

Description of key information

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 determined to be 105.1-108.6°C at 976.1 hPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
105.1 °C

Additional information

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 determined to be 105.1-108.6°C at 976.1 hPa.

Based on the data from other supporting study from various reliable sources such as handbooks and authoritative database, the melting point of test chemical was determined to be 109 °C which is in the range of key study value. Thus, for the purpose of chemical safety assessment we will consider the key study value which is reported as 105.1-108.6°C at 976.1 hPa.
