Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

The test substance was subjected to Differential thermo analysis (DTA) for determination of melting point. Under the conditions of the test, the melting point of the test substance is >180 °C. The test substance melts under substance decomposition. In addition, a calculation of the melting point is published. Calculated melting point of the test substance is 350 °C. Since there are test data available, the calculation data are not considered.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
180 °C
