Endpoint:
melting point/freezing point
Type of information:
read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
data from handbook or collection of data
Justification for type of information:
Read-across from surrogate sustbance corn oil, which characterization is similar to corn oil oxidized : identical fatty acids and same content.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across: supporting information
Qualifier:
no guideline required
GLP compliance:
not specified
Melting / freezing pt.:
> -18 - < -10 °C
Conclusions:
By analogy, the melting point of the corn oil oxydized is from -18 to -10 °C.
