Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Remarks:
Migrated from section 'Stability: thermal, sunlight, metals'
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
The study was not carried out in accordance with the conditions of GLP. Generally accepted technical methods were applied (UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, 3rd edition, test H.4) and the study and its results were documented sufficiently. The study therefore is considered as reliable with restrictions.

Any other information on results incl. tables

In none of the tests an exothermic effect was observed and the sample temperature did not exceed the oven temperature beyond the limit of 6 °C. The sample temperature followed the oven temperature for seven days.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The results of the test show that under temperature conditions which may be normally encountered during transport or storage, sodium percarbonate can be considered to be thermically stable.
Executive summary:

The test substance sodium percarbonate was tested for its thermal stability using a heat accumulation storage test according to the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, 3rd edition, test H.4.

In none of the tests an exothermic effect was observed and the sample temperature did not exceed the oven temperature beyond the limit of 6 °C. The sample temperature followed the oven temperature for seven days.
