Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Physico-chemical properties were mostly determined from experimental testing, except Vapour Pressure that was calculated from QSAR. Some endpoints were waived, based on chemical structure or experience.


The substance is colourless transparent, low viscous liquid at ambient pressure and temperature, less dense than water, and with low volatility.


It is soluble in water, with no surface-active properties anticipated.


It has low potential for bioaccumulation.


It is NOT classified as hazardous with regard to physical hazards, based on CLP criteria. The substance is classified as Flammable Liquid, Category 4 (Combustible Liquid) according to GHS.
