Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

EC number: 295-523-6 | CAS number: 92062-09-4 A complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained by treating slack wax with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst. It consists predominantly of saturated straight and branched chain hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly greater than C20.

Description of key information
>300°C to 800°C
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Constituent hydrocarbons of slack wax are produced from vacuum distillation and reported data suggest the boiling points to be between >300°C to 800°C (CONCAWE, 1999a). Additionally, a boiling point range of 315 to 700°C was reported for slack waxes (CONCAWE, 2010a). Boiling point was determined using the EN 15199/ASTM D 1160 test method.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
