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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

EC number: 291-063-5 | CAS number: 90320-37-9 Extractives and their physically modified derivatives such as tinctures, concretes, absolutes, essential oils, oleoresins, terpenes, terpene-free fractions, distillates, residues, etc., obtained from Prunus amygdalus sativa, Rosaceae.
Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
Physico-chemical properties of registered substance were determined from experimental testing. Some endpoints were waived, based on chemical structure.
The substance is a white powder at ambient temperature, with low volatility. It is soluble in water.
Surface-active properties are not expected.
It has no potential for bioaccumulation (log Kow<0.3).
It is not classified as hazardous with regard to physical hazards (flammability, explosivity, oxidising properties) based on CLP criteria.
Summary of relevant physico-chemical properties:
Endpoint |
Data |
| Appearance (visual) | Registered substance is a white powder at 20 °C and 1 atm. |
| Melting point (OECD 102/EU A1, DSC) | No melting point was recorded, the test item overflowed and blackened. |
Boiling point (OECD 103/EU A2, DSC) |
No boiling point was recorded under nitrogen atmosphere, the test item overflowed and blackened. |
Density (OECD 109/EU A3, pycnometer) |
The density of test item was determined to be 753.7 kg/m3 at 24.5°C. |
Vapour pressure (OECD 104/EU A4, effusion method weight loss) |
The vapour pressure of the test item is largely lower than 10-3 Pa at 20 °C. |
Log Kow (OECD 117, A24,HPLC method) |
The partition coefficient n-octanol/water of the test item was stated as < 0.3. |
Water solubility (OECD 105, A6, flask method) |
The water solubility was determined as 350 g/L at 30°C (pH=8). |
Surface tension (waiving) |
Waiving (based on structure, surface activity is not expected and surface activity is not a desired property of the material) |
Self-ignition temperature (waiving) |
Based on the weight of evidence approach, no self-ignition is expected for this substance. |
Flash-point (waiving) |
The flash point of test substance was waived (study does not need to be conducted because occured during the melting point study). |
Flammability (EU A10/UN method N1) |
Not considered to be flammable. No ignition in contact with flame. No propagation in contact with a flame: not a flammable solid (CLP/ GHS) No hazardous reaction anticipated if contact with air or water, based on chemical structure and experience in handling and use. |
Explosive properties(data waiving, based on chemical structure) |
Neither explosive nor self-reactive properties are anticipated |
Oxidising properties (data waiving) |
No oxidising properties are anticipated |
Particle size distribution (laser diffraction) |
The median diameter was calculated at 17.0 μm |
Organic peroxides (waiving) |
Not a peroxide |
Self reactive substances (waiving) |
Not a self reactive substance |
Additional information
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.
