Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

TGA EXPERIMENT (PRELIMINARY TEST)

Significant decrease of weight from 275°C upwards. At 549°C the sample weight had decreased by 16%.

After the experiment, a black charred residue remained in the sample container (original colour: pink). The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

DSC EXPERIMENT

DSC curve: see Figure 1 in the attached study report.

The DSC-curve obtained showed an exothermic peak between 25°C and 150°C. Based on the weight loss observed in the TGA experiment it was assumed that this effect was most likely due to evaporation of solvent impurities. From 175°C several effects were observed which are related to reaction and/or decomposition of the test item. After the experiment, a black charred residue remained in the sample container.

Conclusions:
Melting of the test item was not observed below the temperature at which reaction and/or decomposition started (i.e. at 175°C). The substance has no melting temperature.
Executive summary:

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) experiments were performed in a GLP study according to EC A.1, OECD 102 and OPPTS 830.7200. The substance has no melting temperature. During heating from 25°C to 400°C reaction and/or decomposition of the substance started at 175°C. Melting of the test item was not observed below the temperature at which reaction and/or decomposition started.
