Endpoint:
melting point/freezing point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
December 20, 2016
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
thermal analysis
Melting / freezing pt.:
> 107 - < 149 °C
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
> 220 °C

Between 107 and 149 °C, an endothermic peak related to the melting point was observed, followed by a degradation starting from 220 °C.

Conclusions:
The substance melts between 107 and 149 °C (onset at 126 °C), followed by a degradation starting from 220 °C.
Executive summary:

Method

The test was performed according to internationally accepted testing procedures, using the Differential Scanning Calorimetry method for the analysis.

RESULT

Between 107 and 149 °C, there is a negative peak associated to the melting point, followed by a degradation starting from 220 °C.

Description of key information

There is a endothermic peak associated to the melting point between 107 and 149 °C (onset 125.77 °C), followed by a degradation starting from 220 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
125.77 °C

Additional information

The Melting Point analysis was performed according to internationally accepted testing procedures, using the Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) method for the analysis. Between 107 and 149 °C, there is an endothermic peak related to the melting point, followed by a degradation starting from 220 °C.
