Description of key information

Appearance

The test item was observed to be a tan-coloured waxy solid.

 

Melting/freezing point

The pour point of an analogue test item was determined to be 39 ± 3 °C (312 ± 3K) (OECD 102 and EU Method A.1).

Boiling point

The boiling temperature of an analogue test item was determined to be from approximately 110 °C (383 K) at 99 to 101 kPa (OECD 103 and EU Method A.2).

 

Relative density

The density of an analogue item was determined to be 909 kg/m3 at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C with relative density of 0.909 (OECD 109 and EU Method A.3).

Granulometry

Granulometry has not been investigated because the source and target substances are waxy solids for which particle size influencing toxicological profile is not relevant.

 

Vapour pressure

Vapour pressure of an analogue test item was determined to be 0.555 Pa at 25°C (298 K) 2.68 Pa at 40°C (313 K) 3.47 Pa at 60°C (333 K) (OECD 104 and EU Method A.4).

 

Partition coefficient

The partition coefficient of the test item was determined by the HPLC method to be > 1.0 x 10E10 with Log10 Pow > 10.0 (OECD 117 and EU Method A.8).

Water solubility

The water solubility of the test item at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C and a nominal loading rate of 0.1 g/L was determined by the flask method to be 3.59 x 10E-03 gTOC/L. The water solubility was demonstrated to be loading rate dependent (OECD 105 and EU Method A.6).

Surface tension

Surface tension of an analogue test item was determined to be 66.5 ± 2.0 mN/m for the 0.11 g/L loading rate and 56.2 ± 1.0 mN/m for the 1.1 g/L loading rate at 22.0 ± 0.5°C. The test item was considered to be surface active but this was dependent on loading rate (OECD 115 and EU Method A.5).

 

Flash point

The flash point of an analogue test item was determined to be 109 ± 2 °C (EU Method A.9).

 

Autoflammability / self-ignition temperature

An analogue test item was determined to have an auto-ignition temperature of 362 ± 5 °C (EU Method A.15).

Flammability

Both source and target substances are approaching the border between solid and liquid states at ambient temperature (experimentally determined pour point of analogue substance 39 ± 3 °C) and investigation of target substance flammability is unnecessary given the known flash point of the analogue test substance (109 ± 2°C).

 

Explosive properties

Based on expert consideration of the chemical structure of an analogue test item, the result for explosive properties has been predicted negative (EU Method A.14).

 

Oxidising properties

Based on expert consideration of the chemical structure of an analogue test item, the result for oxidising properties has been predicted negative.
