Melting point / freezing point

Link to relevant study record(s)

Reference

Reference 1

Endpoint:

melting point/freezing point

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

supporting study

Study period:

2014-09-06

Reliability:

2 (reliable with restrictions)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment

Qualifier:

equivalent or similar to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.1 (Melting / Freezing Temperature)

Qualifier:

equivalent or similar to guideline

Guideline:

OECD Guideline 102 (Melting point / Melting Range)

GLP compliance:

no

Type of method:

method to determine freezing temperature

Key result

Melting / freezing pt.:

< -22 °C

Decomposition:

no

Sublimation:

no

Conclusions:

The freezing point of the test item was determined to be below -22 °C.

Executive summary:

A study similar to OECD TG 102 Preliminary test for determining the freezing point of the test item was performed. The substance was stored in the fridge for 3 days at -22 °C and did not solidify and remaind liquid. Thus, the freezing point was determined to be below -22 °C.

Description of key information

The substance was stored in the fridge for 3 days at -22 °C and did not solidify and remaind liquid. Thus, the freezing point is below -22 °C.

Additional information

A study similar to OECD TG 102 Preliminary test for determining the freezing point of the test item was performed. The substance was stored in the fridge for 3 days at -22 °C and did not solidify and remaind liquid. Thus, the freezing point was determined to be below -22 °C (reference 4.2-1). Therefore, no main test was performed (reference 4.2-2).
