Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The thermograms and thermographic data for determinations 1 to 3 are shown in figures (see attachment) and table:

Thermal Event Interpretation Temperature [°C (K)]
Determination 1 Determination 2 Determination 3
Exotherm Onset of decomposition 200.31 (473.46) 206.88 (480.03) 209.81 (482.96)

Atmospheric pressure: 99 kPa

After being heated to 400 °C, the residues of the three determinations had lost approximately 36 % and 42 % of their original weight.

Overall result: decomposition from approximately 200 °C (473 K)

Discussion

As a result of the low rate of enthalpy change during decomposition, the onset temperature could only be approximated. As approximately 60% remained after heating to 400 °C, complete decomposition and volatilization of the test item had not occurred.

The baseline shift between approximately 160 and 170 °C in Determination 1 was considered not to be a thermal event related to the test item. Thus, a third determination was performed to confirm this.

Conclusion

The test item has been determined to decompose from approximately 200 °C (473 K) at 99 kPa. As the test item decomposed, no value for boiling temperature could be determined.

Conclusions:
The test item has been determined to decompose from approximately 200 °C (473 K) at 99 kPa. As the test item decomposed, no value for boiling temperature could be determined.
Executive summary:

The boiling point of the test item was determined to a procedure compatible with EU Method A.2 and OECD Guideline 103 in compliance with GLP. Differntial scanning calorimetry was chosen as method. After being heated to 400°C, the residues had lost approximately 36 % and 42 % of their original weights.
