Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
thermal analysis
Remarks on result:
other: Definite value of melting temperature of the test substance "Dried sludge from domestic waste" could not be determined in the tempereture range of 25-1000 °C that was examined

Two exothermic peaks were observed but no endothermic peak was found up to 1000 oC which indicates that melting temperature is >1000 oC

Conclusions:
The melting temperature of the material is > 1000 oC.
Executive summary:

The melting temperature of the test substance "Dried sludge from domestic waste was examined with the method of Differential Thermal Analysis.


The analysis was conducted in accordance with:


- Method A.1. Melting/Freezing temperature,Council Regulation (EC) No.440/2008, Published in O.J. L 142, 2008


- OECD Test Guideline No.102, Melting Point/Melting Range, Adopted July 27, 1995


No endothermic peak was recorded up to 1000 °C, indicating that the melting point of the substance is greater than 1000 °C

Description of key information
