Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Test material

Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:

Molecular formula:
Zn5(OH)8Cl2·H2O
IUPAC Name:
pentazinc dichloride octahydroxide

Results and discussion

Relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions
Remarks:
No exothermic peaks have been observed in the heat flux plot. A small endothermic peak is observed between 130-150 °C, the latter is related to dehydration processes (as confirmed by the correspondent loss in weight visible in the thermogravimetric plot). The difference in temperature between the sample and the oven never exceeded 0.5 °C, the plots for the temperatures of the samples and of the oven are perfectly overlapping.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The analysis showed that no self-ignition processes are taking place when the sample is heated up to 450 °C in air flux
