Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
The substance has a low melting point and shows a flashpoint and explosive limits similar to liquids.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
the upper and lower explosive limits of Norbornene were determined according to DoIN 51649, part 1 of Dec 1986 or prEN 1839 respectively. Due to the low melting point of the test substance the test was performed at an temperature of 75°C. The upper explosive limit was determined at 2.5% (w/w) corresponding to 0.77 % (v/v). The upper explosive limit was determined at 18.4% (w/w) corresponding to 6.5% (v/v).
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance has a low melting point and shows a flashpoint and explosive limits similar to liquids. With respect to reactivity with water and pyrophoric properties, Norbornene does not show reactivity. Hence it is not classified under these criteria.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
