Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

supporting study
Study period:
Jan 25, 2018
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
differential scanning calorimetry
Melting / freezing pt.:
133 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 1 013 hPa
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
>= 188.8 °C

In the temperature range of 133 – 150 °C an endothermic effect (melting), was observed. Between approx. 189 – 280 °C a exothermic effect (decomposition) could be detected. During the heating phase an endothermic effect was observed in the temperature range of 133 – 150 °C, which can be assigned to the melting of the test item. The onset temperatures is 133.0 °C, the test item has a melting point of 133.0 °C.
