Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- appearance / physical state / colour
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2017-04-03 to 2017-05-22
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Justification for type of information:
- To assess the appearance, physical state and colour of Dibutyl peroxydicarbonate, the guideline study for in vitro gene mutation in bacteria (Ames test) according to OECD 471 can be used as reliable source of information.
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- reference to same study
- Qualifier:
- no guideline required
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
- liquid
- Key result
- Form:
- liquid
- Colour:
- colourless
- Substance type:
- organic
- Conclusions:
- Dibutyl peroxydicarbonate in its marketed form is a colourless liquid.
- Executive summary:
Dibutyl peroxydicarbonate in its marketed form is a colourless liquid.

Description of key information
Dibutyl peroxydicarbonate in its marketed form is a colourless liquid.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
- liquid
Additional information
Due to the thermal instability of Dibutyl peroxydicarbonate, the substance is only available together with a phlegmatiser. During manufacturing, the phlegmatiser serves as the solvent for Dibutyl peroxydicarbonate, and therefore the appearance, physical state and colour of "pure" Dibutyl peroxydicarbonate cannot be determined.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
