Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
Physico-chemical properties were determined from experimental testing, except Surface Tension and Auto-Ignition Temperature that were derived from a structural analogue. Some endpoints were waived, based on chemical structure.
The substance is a solid at ambient temperature, with low volatility. In water, it is very soluble, and much denser. Based on analogue data, despite the substance is expected to have surface-active potential under the experimental conditions, it is not considered as a true surfactant, due to the chemical structure of the substance and not intended use.
It has low potential for bioaccumulation.
It is NOT classified as dangerous with regard to physical hazards, based on CLP criteria. However, dust explosion potential should be considered, due to low particle size.
