Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

non flammable

Additional information

Annex XI, Section 2, of Regulation EC No. 1907/2006, states that testing for a specific endpoint may be omitted if it is technically not possible to conduct the study as a consequence of the properties of the substance. According to Regulation EC No. 440/2008, A.10, the test procedure is applicable to powdery, granular or paste-like solids. As this substance is a soft waxy solid with a melting point of approximately 60 oC, its flammability will be assessed by a flash point method. The criterion is met and an adaptation to the data requirements applies.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Non-flammable acccording to flash point.
