Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

yes
Decomp. temp.:
>= 306 °C
Remarks on result:
other: The boiling temperature could not be determined.

At a heating mantle temperature of approximately 579.1 K (306 °C) the test substance started to decompose and produced a yellow condense. At a mantle temperature of 729.1 K (456 °C) the decomposed test substance started to reflux and produced a yellow vapour. At a mantle temperature of 766.1 K (493 °C) and a distillation temperature of 343.1 K (70 °C) the yellow vapour reached the distillation cooler. At a distillation temperature of 359.1 K (86 °C) the decomposed test substance started to distil. The distillation stopped at a distillation temperature of 368.1 K (95 °C). The amount of distillate (dark brown viscous liquid) was 0.34 g. The amount of the residue (black coloured burned crispy-like substance) was 2.46 g, i.e. 86 % of the test substance amount remained in the distillation flask.

Conclusions:
The boiling temperature could not be determined. The test substance decomposed at a distillation temperature of 368.1 K (95 °C).

Description of key information

Decomposes above approximately 306ºC without boiling (EU A.2; distillation method).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The boiling temperature could not be determined. Decomposition started at approximately 306 °C.
