Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Appearance

On the basis of physical observation, test chemical was observed to be solid in appearance.

 

Melting point

Based on the data from reliable source, the melting point of test chemical was determined to be in the range of 88°C to 91°C.

 

Boiling Point

Based on the prediction done using the EPI Suite MPVPBP V1.43, the boiling point of test chemical was predicted. The boiling point of chemical was estimated to be 683.63˚C

 

Density

Based on the data from reliable handbook, the density of test chemical was determined to be 1.15 g/cm3.

 

Particle size distribution

The particle size distribution of test chemical was determined by granulometric analysis with rotap sieve shaker. The particle size distribution was determined to be in the range of 150 micron to 10 micron.

 

Vapour pressure

Modified Grain method was used to estimate the vapour pressure of the test substance using MPBPVP v1.43 of EPI Suite. Vapour pressure of test chemical was estimated to be 2.08E-17 mmHg (2.78E-15 Pa).

 

Partition coefficient

On the basis of data from modelling database, the partition coefficient value of test chemical was determined to be 7.792.. Based on this value, test chemical was considered to be hydrophobic in nature.

 

Water solubility

WSKOW v1.42 was used to estimate the water solubility of the test chemical. The estimated water solubility of the test chemical at 25°C was 0.003318 mg/l. Based on the estimated value, the test substance was considered to be insoluble water.

 

Surface tension

The study does not need to be conducted because surface activity is not a desired property of the material.

 

Flash point

The study does not need to be conducted because the flash point is only relevant to liquids and low melting point solids.

 

Auto flammability

Test chemical did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°C pressure of 962 hPa. This indicates that the test chemical is not auto-flammable.

 

Flammability

Test chemical does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus it can be concluded that test chemical is not flammable.

 

Explosiveness

The study does not need to be conducted because the there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties.

 

Oxidizing properties

The study does not need to be conducted because the organic substance contains oxygen or halogen atoms which are chemically bonded only to carbon or hydrogen and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied.

Additional information

Appearance

Based on the data from reliable handbook, test chemical appears as organic solid.

 

Melting point

Based on the data from reliable source, the melting point of test chemical was determined to be in the range of 88°C to 91°C.

In a supporting data from modelling databases, the melting point of test chemical was determined to be in the range of 83.5°C to 84°C.

 

Boiling Point

Based on the prediction done using the EPI Suite MPVPBP V1.43, the boiling point of test chemical was predicted. The boiling point of chemical was estimated to be 683.63˚C

From modelling databases, the boiling point of test chemical was determined to be 695.2±65.0°C at 1013 Pa (760 mmHg).

 

Density

Based on the data from reliable handbook, the density of test chemical was determined to be 1.15 g/cm3.

In a supporting data from modelling database, the density of test chemical was estimated to be 1.1±0.1 g/cm3.

From reliable modelling database, the density of test chemical was estimated to be 1.088±0.06 g/cm3 at 20°C and 760 torr.

 

Particle size distribution

The particle size distribution of test chemical was determined by granulometric analysis with rotap sieve shaker. The particle size distribution was determined to be in the range of 150 micron to 10 micron.

 

Vapour pressure

Modified Grain method was used to estimate the vapour pressure of the test substance using MPBPVP v1.43 of EPI Suite. Vapour pressure of test chemical was estimated to be 2.08E-17 mmHg (2.78E-15 Pa).

 

Partition coefficient

On the basis of data from modelling database, the partition coefficient value of test chemical was determined to be 7.792.

In a supporting data, KOWWIN V1.68 was used to estimate the octanol water partition coefficient of the test chemical. The estimated logPOW of the test chemical was 7.34.

From secondary source, the partition coefficient value of test chemical was estimated to be 7.4.

Thus, on the basis of available information, the logKow value of the test chemical was evaluated to be ranges from 7.34 to 7.792; indicating the chemical as hydrophobic in nature.

 

Water solubility

WSKOW v1.42 was used to estimate the water solubility of the test chemical. The estimated water solubility of the test chemical at 25°C was 0.003318 mg/l. Based on the estimated value, the test substance was considered to be insoluble water.
