Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Using a linear heating rate of 0.5°C/min from 190°C, the test item turned a brown colour at about 195°C and then turned black at about 215°C without completely melting. Hence, 195°C is considered as the decomposition temperature.

Conclusions:
The test item decomposed prior to melting, starting at 195°C

Description of key information

In the key study the test item decomposed prior to melting, starting at 195°C

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
195 °C
