Results and discussion

Melting / freezing point
Melting / freezing pt.:
<= -90 °C
Remarks on result:
other: Not observed above -90°C

Any other information on results incl. tables

No effects due to crystallization and/or melting of the test substance were observed with a temperature programme that was cooled down to -90°C.

An additional experiment was performed to investigate whether the test substance melts at low temperatures. The test substance was stored in a freezer at -15°C to -30°C for 7 hours. The test substance was still a liquid. Subsequently, the vessel was placed overnight in a freezer at -75°C to -90°C. Either at this temperature, the test substance was a liquid. From this it was concluded that the crystallization of the test substance does not occur at temperatures of above -75°C.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The melting temperature of the reaction mass containing mainly 2-chloropropene were determined using DSC.
Freezing and/or melting of the test substance was not observed at temperatures of above -90°C (183K).
