Description of key information
Additional information
| Substance Endpoint | dibenzylbenzene, ar-methyl derivative 53585 -53 -8 |
| State of the substance | colorless to yellow liquid |
| Melting/Freezing point | -38.5 - -32.8 °C (a melting range ist stated) |
| Boiling point | decomposition at 265 °C; calculated boiling point: 273 °C (based on method of Banks); 389.6 °C (based on EPA method) |
| Relative density | 1.0441 at 20 °C |
| Vapour pressure | 0.00101 Pa at 20 °C; 0.00162 Pa at 25°C |
| Surface tension | waiving: Based on the structure of the submission substance surface activity is not expected. In addition, the solubility of the material is below 1 mg/L at 20 °C. |
| Water solubility | 18 µg/L at 20 °C |
| Partition coefficient, logPow | > 6 at 22 °C |
| Flash point | 212 °C at 1013 hPa |
| Flammability | Waiving: Based on the structural composition and based on experience during use as Heat Transfer Fluid it is well known that the material is not pyrophoric. |
| Explosive properties | Waiving: The submission substance does not contain any chemical group that is associated with explosive properties. The substance is used as Heat Transfer Fluid at higher temperature and therefore absence of explosive properties is well known. |
| Ignition temperature | 500 °C |
| Oxidizing Properties | Waiving: The submission substance is incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials since the chemical structure does not contain oxygen. |
| Granulometry | Waiving: submission substance is a liquid at ambient temperature and marketed as such |
| Stability in organic solvents | Waiving: Stability of the test substance is not considered to be critical |
| Viscosity (static) | 47.94 mm²/s at 20 °C; 16.35 mm²/s at 40 °C |
Dissociation constant |
Waiving: The submission substance cannot dissociate due to a lack of relevant functional groups. |
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).
