Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Approximate onset of decomposition

As a result of the low rate of enthalpy change during decomposition, the onset temperature could only be approximated. Two further thermograms were run for additional information. These showed that after being heated to 150 °C and 300 °C they had lost none and 7% of their original weight respectively. The appearance of the residue after being heated to 150 °C was similar to that of the original test item; this suggested that minimal decomposition had not occurred up to 150 °C.

Conclusions:
The test item has been determined to decompose from approximately 128 °C (401 K) at 101 kPa. As the test item decomposed, no value for boiling temperature could be determined.
Executive summary:

Decomposition of the test material was observed from approximately 128 °C (401 K) at 101 kPa, by differential scanning calorimetry, designed to be compatible with Method A.2 Boiling Temperature of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 103 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995. As the test item decomposed, no value for boiling temperature could be determined.

Description of key information

The boiling point of the test material was determined in accordance with EU Method A.2 and OECD 103 by differential scanning calorimetry. Decomposition occurred from approximately 128 °C (401 K) at 101 kPa. As the test item decomposed, no value for boiling temperature could be determined.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
