Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

TGA EXPERIMENT (PRELIMINARY TEST)

Significant decrease of weight from 275°C. 25% weight loss at 362°C and 51% weight loss at 549°C.

After the experiment, a black charred expended residue remained in the sample container (original colour: white) and a black residue was observed on the lid of the sample container. The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

DSC EXPERIMENT 1

 An endothermic peak was observed between 200°C and 250°C directly followed by an exothermic effect starting at 275°C. The extrapolated onset temperature of the first peak was 230.980°C. The endothermic effect was most likely obtained due to melting of the test item. The exothermic effect was probably obtained due to reaction and/or decomposition of the test item. After the experiment, a yellow expended residue remained in the sample container (original colour: white) and a yellow residue was observed on the lid of the sample container. Based on this visual observation, it was found that the test item had molten and the change of the colour demonstrated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

DSC EXPERIMENT 2

In order to investigate the melting peak, Experiment 2 was stopped directly after the melting peak. The extrapolated onset temperature was 230.974°C. After the experiment, a yellow white molten residue remained in the sample container. The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item. It demonstrated that melting was the reason for the endothermic effect.

DATA HANDLING

The melting temperature was determined as the mean of the extrapolated onset temperature of Experiment 1 and Experiment 2.

Conclusions:
The melting temperature of the substance was determined to be 231°C.

Executive summary:

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) experiments were performed in a GLP study according to EC A.1, OECD 102 and OPPTS 830.7200.

The melting temperature of the substance was determined in duplicate obtaining a mean value of 231°C.

Reaction and/or decomposition of the substance started during melting.
