Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Two studies were conducted to GLP standards and according to EU method A 16 of 67/548/EEC.

The test material exhibited no auto-flammability/exothermic behaviour up to its melting point in either study. Melting point was determined as 238°C in one study (Eaton 1987) and between 238 - 244°C in the other study (Baker & Whitmore 1988).
