Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Executive summary:

GUIDELINE

The determination was carried out by the crystallising point method using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A.1 Melting/Freezing Temperature of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 102 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995.

RESULT

The freezing temperature of the test item was determined to be less than -20 °C (< 253 K).

Description of key information

The freezing temperature of the test item was determined to be less than -20 °C (< 253 K) (OECD 102 and EU Method A.1).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
