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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Weight of evidence approach based on two peer-reviewed data from handbooks (590 and 592 °C)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- 590 °C
Additional information
Although only two values are available it can safely be concluded that the melting point of barium nitrate is relatively high, making this parameter irrelevant for both the environmental and human health risk assessment. As only two values are available, it was decided to conclude on an approximate value (590°C) instead of on a mean value.
A study on barium chloride was added in order to support the read across justification between both substances. In this study report, the melting point for barium chloride was considered to be > 600°C.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
