Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- melting point/freezing point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- From 9 November 2015 To 31 March 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)
- Deviations:
- no
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)

- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: Controlled room temperature (15-25°C, below 70 RH%) - Key result
- Decomposition:
- yes
- Decomp. temp.:
- 240 °C
- Remarks on result:
- not determinable
- Remarks:
- No melting point was observed up to 240 °C. Over 240 °C the test item colour changed to brown and charred.
- Conclusions:
- The test item decomposed at 240°C before melting.
- Executive summary:
For the determination of the melting point or melting range, the capillary method was used.
A small amount of the test item was heated in the electronic controlled sample block and the temperature around the sample was displayed. The sample was observed visually while raising the temperature. The initial and final melting temperatures were determined.
The test item decomposed at 240°C before melting.
Reference
No melting point was observed up to 240 °C. Over 240 °C the test item colour changed to brown and charred. Therefore, it was concluded that the test item decomposed at 240°C before melting.
Description of key information
The melting point of the test item was determined according to recognized guideline (EU Method A.1 and OECD guideline 102) and under GLP. No deviation from the guideline was observed during the test.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The test item decomposed at 240°C before melting. Indeed, the test item colour changed to brown and charred
