Results and discussion
Melting / freezing point
- Key result
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- < -35 °C
Any other information on results incl. tables
No peak was observed for freezing point measurements down to -35°C. Considering the nature of the test item, a visual validation of the absence of crystallisation at low temperature was done with a sample of the mixture stored in a freezer for at least 24 hours at -23.2 °C; the test item was still liquid after that.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- No further testing is required (< -20°C).
- Executive summary:
The freezing point of the test substance was measured according to OECD102/EU A1 guideline, with the DSC method.
Two DSC runs were performed, and the result was confirmed by visual assessment of a sample put in a freezer.
No solidification or freezing of the test material was observed down to the minimum test temperature of -35°C.
