Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

The temperature range of the loss of the water/imbibition solvent from the substance is 40 - 120 °C and its decomposition range is 281 - 403 °C. The onset of decomposition was at 325.1 °C, with an enthalpy of 636.2 J/g. Despite the high energy release, i.e. above the threshold value of 500 J/g, the thermal profile traced with Differential Scanning Calorimetry shows a well defined exothermic peak that ends at 403 °C, characterised of an entity such as to exclude a potential explosive effect.

Moreover, an experimental study conducted on the substance in itsef (according to the EU Method A.14) showed that it has no explosive propreties.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The substance can be expected to be non explosive, according to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008).
