Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
Physico-chemical endpoints are completed based on test data following standard guidelines and data waivers. All data are therefore considered to be reliable and relevant for the endpoint concerned.
Appearance / Physical state / Colour
The test item is a white solid at room temperature as reported in the test item section of a GLP-compliant experimental study (Dunning 2018).
Melting point/freezing point
The melting temperature of the test item was not determinable as the test item decomposed at 185°C without melting (Dunning 2018). The study was conducted according to OECD TG 102 guideline and EU Method A.1.
Boiling point
This endpoint was waived as in accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the boiling point study does not need to be conducted as this substance decomposes before boiling.
Density
The relative density was determined to be 1.00 at 20°C (Dunning 2018). The study was conducted according to OECD 109 guideline and E.U. Method A.3.
Particle Size Distribution
This endpoint was waived as in accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the granulometry study does not need to be conducted as the substance is marketed or used in a non-solid or granular form.
Vapour Pressure
The vapour pressure of the test item was determined to be 3 x 10 -4 Pa (Dunning 2018). The study was conducted according to OECD Method 104 and E.C. Method A.4.
Partition coefficient
The test item was determined to have log10Pow values between 1.8 and 3.1 (Dunning 2018). The study was conducted according OECD Method 117 and EC. Method A.8.
Water Solubility
The water solubility of the test item was determined to be 3.7 mg/L at 20°C (Dunning 2018). The study was conducted according OECD Method 105 and EC. Method A.6.
Surface Tension
The test item was found to have a surface tension of 43.5 mN/m (Dunning 2018). The study was conducted according OECD Method 115 and EC. Method A.5.
Flashpoint
This endpoint was waived as in accordance with ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R7a: endpoint specific guidance, the flash point study does not need to be conducted as this substance is a solid at room temperature.
Auto flammability
The test item was found to ignite by self-heating at 386 °C (Dunning 2018). The study was conducted according the E.U. Method A.16.
Flammability
The test item was found to be not highly flammable (Dunning 2018). The study was conducted according to E.U. Method A.10.
Explosiveness
This endpoint was waived as in accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the explosive properties studies do not need to be conducted as there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the substance
Oxidising Properties
This endpoint was waived as in accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the oxidising properties study does not need to be conducted as the substance is incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials on the basis of the chemical structure.
Additional information
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). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
