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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
The test item shows an exothermic decomposition in the temperature range 240 -450°C with an energy of approximately 731 J/g.
The test item forms stable complexes with multivalent metal ions like e.g. iron(II), iron(III) and alumimun(III) in aqueous solutions.
According to the UV/VIS spectrum Octopirox absorbs at wavelengths above 290 nm.

Additional information
The DSC-measurements in closed glass crucibles showed an endothermic effect in the temperature range 125 – 150 °C (melting) and an exothermic decomposition in the temperature range 240 – 450 °C with an energy of 719 J/g or 742 J/g, respectively (see study repor t #20080961.02)
Justification for classification or non-classification
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
