Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline available
Guideline:
other: Siemens DTA
Deviations:
not specified
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Flammability: powder-swell was formed onto a tile.
The substance was inflamed with a heated platin-conductor at one end.

DTA in closed cup with heating rate of 3K/min was tested to check thermic stability. Only glass cup was used. Additional the same test was done under 20 bar air pressure to check O2-effect onto the thermic stability of the product.
GLP compliance:

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
with O2 above melting point at approx. 270 °C first Oxidation reaction starts.

In closed glass cup without O2 at 280 - 270 °C a slight exothermic reaction of -50J/g was measured. A critical spontaneous heating could be bared.
Melting of the product avoids spread of fire and spread of glow-nest. Creation of glow-nest can be eliminated as an ignition of a dust explosion.
