Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

No ignition in the preliminary burning rate test (EU Method A.10).

Based on experience in handling and use and the chemical structure pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not to be expected.

The substance is completely molten at 160 °C and therefore does not need to be considered for classification as self-heating. Furthermore the Bowes-Cameron Cage Test showed a negative result (UN Test N.4).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

The available data on flammability of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification:

No ignition in a test according EU Method A.10.

Based on chemical structure and experience in handling and use, pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not expected.

The substance is completely molten at 160 °C, therefore the substance does not need to be considered for classification as self-heating substance.
