Type of method:
differential scanning calorimetry
Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
> 400 °C

No weight loss was observed during the experiment. After the test, a white residue remained in the sample container, so no effects were observed.

Conclusions:
In a study according to current OECD/EC/EPA test guidelines, the melting point of the substance was determined using DSC technique, resulting in a melting temperature >400°C.

Description of key information

Using Differential Scanning Calorimetry, the melting temperature of the substance was determined to be > 400°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
