Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

EC number: 283-483-2 | CAS number: 84650-03-3 A complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained by distillation of coal tar. It consists of aromatic and other hydrocarbons, phenolic compounds and aromatic nitrogen compounds and distills at the approximate range of 150°C to 210°C (302°F to 410°F).

Description of key information
Value estimated from value taken from OECD SIDS for dyciclopentadiene and from EU RAR naphthalene and from EU RAR for phenol
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 600 °C
Additional information
The substance dicyclopentadiene is very similar to substances indan and indene, which are present in the registered substance (two rings, partally aromatic) in concentation cca 50% (w/w) with same vapour pressure (1,3 kPa) and similar Flash Point (32,3°C vs 51°C for registered substance)
The content of naphthalene is usually cca 10% (w/w), however could be up to 30% (w/w) according to SIP (Section 1.2.)
The content of phenol is cca 15 % (w/w), could be up to 40 % (w/w)
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.
