Description of key information
Appearance:
On the basis of physical observation the test chemical was observed to be black colored powder in appearance.
Melting point:
The melting point determination of test chemical was done following OECD Guideline 102 and according to the metal block capillary method.
The test was conducted in replicates and Mean decomposition temperature was observed to be 376.7°C at 978.8hPa.
Boiling point:
According to Column II of Annex VII, the
boiling point study does not need to be conducted for solids which
either melt above 300 °C or decompose before boiling.
The substance is a solid at room temperature and it is reported to
decompose at a temperature of 376.7°C without melting .
Hence, it is not feasible to determine
boiling point and the endpoint was considered for waiver.
Density:
The density of test chemical was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to the Method adapted from ASTM D854-02 using glass pyknometer.
The mean density of test item is was determined to be 0.3262 g/cm³ at 21°C and 978.3 hPa.
Particle size distribution(Granulometry):
The particle size distribution of test chemical was determined by granulometric analysis with rotap sieve shaker.
The particle size distribution was observed to bein the range of 150 micron to 10 micron.
Partition coefficient:
The partition coefficient of substance was determined as per the HPLC method (OECD Guideline-117). The Log Pow value was determined to be 10.00 dimensionless at 25°C.
Vapour Pressure:
According to Column II of Annex VII, the vapor pressure study does not need to be conducted for solids which either melt above 300 °C or decompose before boiling. The test substance , Iron Phthalocyanine is reported to decompose at a temperature of 376.7°C without melting .Hence this study can be considered for waiver.
Partition Coefficient:
The partition coefficient of substance was determined as per the HPLC method (OECD Guideline-117). The Log Pow value was determined to be 10.00 dimensionless at 25°C.
Water Solubility:
The water solubility determination of test chemical was done as per the OECD guideline 105 by spectrophotometric analytical method as per OECD 101. The solubility of test chemical in water was determine to be 0.0253 mg/L at 25°C.
Thus the test chemical is considered to be insoluble.
Surface Tension:
In accordance with column 2 of Annex VII of the REACH regulation, this testing needs to be carried out only if surface activity is a desired property of the chemical. The test chemical is a dye. For this use, surface activity is not a desired property and hence this end point is considered for waiver.
Flash Point:
The flash point determination of test chemical was done following closed cup method using Pensky-Martens flash point apparatus. The test was conducted and flash point was observed to be greater than 250°C at 977.9hPa.
Autoflammability:
Test chemical did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°C and atmospheric pressure of 966 hPa. This indicates that test chemical is not auto-flammable.
Flammability:
Test chemical does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus it can be concluded that test chemical is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus test chemical was considered non-flammable for chemical safety assessment.
Explosiveness:
In accordance with column 2 of Annex VII of the REACH regulation, the study does not need to be conducted since there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule of test chemical. Thus, this end point was considered for waiver and the chemical is considered to be "Non explosive".
Oxidising Properties:
In accordance with column 2 of Annex VII of the REACH regulation, the substance is incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials on the basis of the chemical structure. It is an organic substance containing oxygen but no halogen atoms and these elements are not chemically bonded to nitrogen or oxygen. Thus, the chemcial is likely to be "Non-oxidising".
pH:
The pH determination of test chemical was done following OECD guideline 122. pH of 1% w/v dispersion was measured with the help of pH meter and it was observed to be 7.28at 30 °C.
Additional information
Appearance:
On the basis of physical observation the test chemical was observed to be black colored powder in appearance.
Experimental result from pubchem database (2016) reports that the chemical is present as dry powder in appearance.
