Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Azo zinc complex pigment – melamine compound is an unreactive, odorless, brown solid (powder) with a molecular mass of 615.79 g/mol. Using the modified Grain method, the vapor pressure is estimated to be 2.83E-14 Pa at 25 °C. No melting point and no boiling point could be detected up to 300°C. Endothermic reactions were detected indicated by evaporation and/ or decomposition with evolution of gas. According to OECD guideline 110, method B, the particle size distribution of zinc, 5,5'-azobis-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-pyrimidinetrione complexes and melamine was determined by scanning electron microscopy method for the sieved fraction (< 100 µm, 14.22 % of total sample) and presented on the basis of calculated mass fractions. The median diameter was 5.33 µm with two main fractions of 6.87 and 92.66 % distributing in the range of 4 -100 µm. In addition, the compound is nearly insoluble (solubility in water: 0.052 mg/l) and the log Pow is estimated to be -3.15.

No compound related adverse effects are reported in a guideline compliant sub-acute toxicity study up to the limit dose of 1000 mg/kg bw/day and, consequently, a DNEL is not required.

Since the compound is a solid, exposure above the general occupational dust value of 10 mg/m³ should be regarded.
