Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Decomp. temp.:
ca. 212 °C

Details:

The test item shows probably a melting area of the main component between -43 °C and 143 °C (in the 1. - 2. heating run) according to the definition in the OECD Guideline 102 (mean value from repeat determinations; 1stmelting).

-43 °C-143 °C (from first measurement)

-43 °C-144 °C (from second measurement)

-44 °C-143 °C (from third measurement)

The cooling runs show a crystallisation at 71 °C.

From 212 °C, the test item shows most probably a thermal decomposition and evaporation of the decomposition components.

Description of key information

-43 to 143 °C. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The melting range of the substance was determined by Differential Scanning Calorimetry according to OECD Guideline 102.

The temperature range represents the melting area of the main component.

The substance decomposes at ca. 212 °C.
