Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Physical & Chemical properties

Endpoint summary

Administrative data

Description of key information

Physico-chemical properties were determined from experimental testing, except partition coefficient that was 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 slightly soluble, denser (so likely to sink), with no surface-active properties anticipated.

It has low potential for bioaccumulation.

It is NOT classified as dangerous with regard to physical hazards,based on CLP criteria.

From granulometry, the substance contains a limited fraction of particles fine enough to be inhaled, but they are not anticipated to reach the thoracic fraction. However, dust explosion potential should be considered.
