Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Decomp. temp.:

Remarks on result:
not determinable

The test item shows no melting of the main component up to 184 °C, according to the definition in the OECD Guideline 102 (mean value from repeat determination).

 

185 °C (from first measurement)

184 °C (from second measurement)

184 °C (from third measurement)

 

From 184 °C the test item shows an endothermic effect (decomposition presumably - a melting > 184 °C can't be excluded).

 

The possible decomposition temperatures according to

- the melting results (184 °C)

- the boiling results (192 °C - see section 4.3)

differ due to different measuring conditions (melting - capsulated crucible / boiling- partially capsulated).

 

The cooling runs do not show a crystallization of the main component.

 

At approximately 49 °C the test item shows an endothermic effect. This effect is possibly melting of a part component and / or a solid-solid phase transformation.

In the temperature range between about 82 °C and 94 °C the test item shows a further endothermic effect. This effect is possibly melting of a part component, evaporating of a part component and / or a solid to solid phase transformation.

These effects do not correlate with the melting of the test item (main component) which was verified by subsequent tests with the Kofler-heating bank.

Results and discussion

Boiling point
Boiling pt.:
>= 192 °C
Atm. press.:
1 007 mBar
Decomposition:
ambiguous
Decomp. temp.:
>= 192 °C

Any other information on results incl. tables

The test item shows a boiling and/or thermal decomposition earliest at approx. 192 °C (at 1007 mBar) according to the definition in the OECD guideline 103.

 

192 °C (from first measurement)

191°C (from second measurement)

192 °C (from third measurement)

 

From 192 °C the test item shows a boiling and/or thermal decomposition with evaporation of the decomposition components.

The DSC measurements were confirmed by means of TGA measurements under the same measuring conditions.

The start of the area of boiling temperatures is defined by using the on-set temperature.
