Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
25 °C

Two DSC-runs in aluminium crubcibles with a hole showed an endothermic effect (melting) in the temperature range 10 - 40 °C with an onset temperature of 25 °C.

 Ident-No.  Onset /°C  Temperature range / °C  Crucible
20528  24.86  10 - 40  Aluminium with a hole
 20534  25.35  10 - 40  Aluminium with a hole
Conclusions:
The melting point of the test item was determined to be 25 °C at atmospheric pressure of 1013 hPa.
Executive summary:

The melting point of the test item was determined  to according to OECD TG 102 using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The melting point is 25 °C at atmospheric pressure of 1013 hPa.
