Melting point / freezing point
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- July 27th, 2015
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: Test conducted according to internationally accepted testing guidelines.
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The test was performed according to the SOP - SRT 028 protocol.
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- differential scanning calorimetry
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Decomp. temp.:
- 261 - 293 °C
- Conclusions:
- The substance decomposes before melting (261 - 293 °C)
- Executive summary:
- The test item melting point was determined using the Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) according to Directive EC 440/2008 Method A.1., OECD Test Guideline 102 (1995).
The imbibition water/solvent release was observed between 50 -145 °C (onset at 59.8 °C, enthalpy: -16.2 J/g), followed by decomposition between 261 - 293 °C (onset at 264.3 °C, enthalpy 21.1 J/g).
Conclusion
The substance decomposes before melting (261 - 293 °C)
