Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Thermal Stability

The DSC-measurement in a closed glass crucible showed an endothermic in the temperature range 270 °C to 330 °C. No further endothermic or exothermic effects were observed up to the maximum test temperature of 500 °C.

Vapour Pressure Balance (Effusion Method)

The vapour pressure was measured in the temperature range of 19 °C to 135 °C. Above 71 °C a vapour pressure could be measured. The measured vapour pressures at the corresponding temperatures are listed in the following table:

Temperature / °C

The course of the vapour pressure shows an atypical behaviour (low gradient). Therefore the values given as results in this report could be too high / too conservative. Due to the conservative evaluation these results will be reported as final results.

Conclusions:
The following vapour pressure values for the test item were extrapolated from the experimental data:
T / °C p/hPa p/Pa
20 1.2 x 10-6 1.2 x 10-4
25 1.5 x 10-6 1.5 x 10-4
50 5.3 x 10-6 5.3 x 10-4
