Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Between 134 -164 °C (onset at 150.24 °C; enthalpy = -26.9 J/g) there is a endothermic peak associated to the release of water/ solvent, between 203 - 256 °C (onset at 212.98 °C; enthalpy = -34.12 J/g) there is a endothermic peak related to the melting of test item, followed by a degradation starting at 290 °C.

Conclusions:
Endothermic peak: 134 -164 °C
Endothermic peak: 203 - 256 °C
Degradation starting from 290 °C
Executive summary:

Method

The test was performed according to internationally accepted testing procedures, using the Differential Scanning Calorimetry method for the analysis.

Result

Between 134 -164 °C (onset at 150.24 °C; enthalpy = -26.9 J/g) there is a first endothermic peak, between 203 - 256 °C (onset at 212.98 °C; enthalpy = -34.12 J/g) there is a second endothermic peak followed by a degradation starting at 290 °C

Description of key information

The substance decomposes starting from 290 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
212.98 °C

Additional information

The Melting Point analysis was performed according to internationally accepted testing procedures, using the Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) method for the analysis.

Between 134 -164 °C (onset at 150.24 °C; enthalpy = -26.9 J/g) there is a first endothermic peak, between 203 - 256 °C (onset at 212.98 °C; enthalpy = -34.12 J/g) there is a second endothermic peak followed by a degradation starting at 290 °C
