Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

non flammable
no pyrophoricity
no flammability on contact with water

not self-heating

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

According to EC 1907/2006 Annex XI only the flammability of liquids is deduced from the flash point. For this solid substance a flash point was determined because the substance melts at relative low temperatures. Therefore the flammability in this case could be deduced from the flash point.

Flash point: 282 °C (closed cup)

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

The substance is not self-heating, because it is a solid completely molten at 160 °C.

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 or Directive 67/548/EEC, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification: The substance is non flammable due to the flashpoint (282 °C closed cup) and based on the experience in handling and use, pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not expected. The substance is not self-heating, because the melting point is below 160 °C.
