Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.2 (Boiling Temperature)
Type of method:
differential scanning calorimetry
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
ca. 260 °C

The boiling temperatures could not be determined. At ca. 260 °C the exothermic peak of Isomalt decomposition starts. Between the endothermic melting peak and the decomposition no endothermic peak indicating sample boiling can be detected. This finding provides evidence that Isomalt decomposes before boiling.
