Description of key information
Dilauroyl peroxide is classified as a peroxide Type D. Self-Accelerating Decomposition Temperature (SADT) of the substance is 50°C. |
Dilauroyl peroxide consitsts of white flakes with a faint odour, so it is not an aerosol or a gas. |
The relative density of di-lauroyl peroxide is 1.04. |
The particle size distribution (PSD) of dilauroyl peroxide is: < 100 µm 1.4 %, < 10 µm 0.21% and < 5 µm 0.09%. The shape of the fines is non-fibrous. |
The vapour pressure of dilauroyl peroxide at 20°C is 1.6 x 10-4 Pa. |
The partition coefficient Log Pow of dilauroyl peroxide is > 6.5. |
The water solubility of dilauroyl peroxide is less than 0.1 mg/l at 20°C and a pH of ca. 7. |
Flammability is an intrinsic hazard of organic peroxides. |
Dilauroyl peroxide has no explosive and oxidizing properties. |
Thermal stability of Dilauroyl peroxide expressed as the time to reach a conversion of 1% at 20°C is: 5.7 days for Dilauroyl peroxide dissolved in heptane 2.9 days for Dilauroyl peroxide dissolved in chlororform 1.6 days for Dilauroyl peroxide dissolved in acetone |
The study on corrosion towards metal is technically not feasible. |
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.
