Endpoint summary

Administrative data

Description of key information

Physico-chemical endpoints are completed based on test data following standard guidelines, and data waivers. All data are therefore considered to be reliable and relevant for the endpoint concerned.

 

Appearance / Physcial state / Colour

The test item is a colourless clear liquid at room temperature as reported in the test item section, and associated certificate of analysis, in a GLP-compliant experimental study (2017).

 

Melting point/freezing point

The freezing point of the test item was determined to be -24°C (249 K) at atmospheric pressure (2013). The melting point of the test item could not be determined at a temperature range from -170°C to 20°C by Differential Scanning Calorimetry. The study was conducted according to OECD TG 102 guideline.

 

Boiling point

The boiling point of the test item was determined to be 280°C (553 K) at atmospheric pressure (2013). The boiling point was determined by distillation method according to OECD TG 103.

 

Density

The relative density of the test item was determined to be 1.055 at 20°C (2013). The study was carried out according to OECD TG 109.

 

Particle size distribution

This endpoint was waived as in accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the granulometry study does not need to be conducted as the substance is marketed or used in a non-solid or granular form.

 

Vapour pressure

The vapour pressure of the test item at 20, 25 and 50°C was calculated to be 1.61, 2.38 and 13.99 Pa (2013). Vapour pressure was determined by dynamic method according to OECD TG 104 .

 

Partition coefficient

The log Pow of the test item was determined to be 3.8 at 35°C (2013). Partition coefficient was determined by HPLC method according to OECD TG 117.

 

Water solubility

The water solubility of the test item was determined to be 21.88 mg/L at 20°C and pH 5.58 (2013). Water solubility was tested according to OECD TG 105.

 

Surface tension

This endpoint was waived as in accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the surface tension study does not need to be conducted as, based on the structure of this substance, surface activity is not expected or predicted and surface tension is not a desired property of the material.

 

Flash point

The flash point of the test item was determined to be 124.9°C with a standard deviation of 0.0°C (2016). The study is a non-GLP, guideline study available as a unpublished report and is reliable without restrictions.

 

Auto flammability

The auto-ignition temperature of the test item was calculated by rounding the lowest measured concentration down to the next lowest number divisible by 5, according to the guideline. Based on this calculation method, the auto-ignition temperature of the test item is 255°C (2017). The study is a GLP compliant, guideline experimental study, available as an unpublished report and is fully adequate for assessment.

 

Flammability

This endpoint was waived as the flammability classification can be determined based on flashpoint and boiling point, plus experience of handling and use.

 

Explosiveness

This endpoint was waived as in accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the explosive properties study does not need to be conducted as there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule.

 

Oxidising properties

This endpoint was waived as in accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the oxidising properties study does not need to be conducted as the substance is incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials on the basis of the chemical structure.
