- Conclusions:
- The melting point of the test item was determined to be 80.2 °C.
- Executive summary:
A study was conducted according to Annex to Directive 92/69/EEC, A.1. The melting point was determined with the capillary method. In a preliminary test the approximate melting point was determined and confirmed in the main test. The melting point of the test item was determined to be 80.2 °C.
Reference
Preliminary test
The preliminary melting point was calculated to be 84.4 °C.
Main test
For the first main test a setpoint of 79 °C and a maxpoint of 89 °C was used. The melting point was too close to the setpoint. Therefore, a second main test was done with a setpoint of 75 °C and a maxpoint of 85 °C.
Measured melting points of the test item (second main test):
Melting Points in °C |
|
| Mean | Standard deviation in °C |
|
Position 1 | Position 2 | Position 3 |
| Actual Value | Target Value |
80.2 | 80.2 | 80.2 | 80.2 | 0.0 | ≤±0.3 |
The test item had a melting point of 80.2 °C.
Description of key information
The melting point of the test item was determined to be 80.2 °C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- 80.2 °C
