Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key result
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
>= 230.1 - <= 230.9 °C
Conclusions:
The 3 samples of the substance decomposed at 230.4°C, 230.1°C and 230.9°C. The average decomposition temperature of the three samples was 230.5°C
Executive summary:

The melting point of Aryl sulphonate condensate was determined using the OECD guideline, No. 102 "Melting Point/Melting Range, Adopted: 27 July 1995 and the United States Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Prevention, Pesticides and Toxic Substances (TS-7101), Product Properties Test Guidelines, OPPTS 830.7200, "Melting Point/Melting Range", EPA 712-C-98-033 March 1998. Using the capillary method this study tested three samples of Aryl sulphonate condensate to conclude that it does not melt, instead it decomposes. The 3 samples of the substance decomposed at 230.4°C, 230.1°C and 230.9°C. The average decomposition temperature of the three samples was 230.5°C (Standard deviation (+-) 0.4), with 0.17% RSD.
