Description of key information

Barium fluoride will melt at a temperature of 1368°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
1 368 °C

Additional information

According to reliable handbook data the melting point of barium fluoride is 1368°C at atmospheric pressure. Handbook data considered to be from a trusted source acc. to "ECHA, Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment – Chapter R.7a: Endpoint specific guidance" and therefore, this melting point could be regarded as valid.
