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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

- Executive summary:
According to the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (D.R. Lide) Magnesium perchlorate decomposes at 250 °C.
No further details are reported in the handbooks on the determination. The reported value is assumed to have been determined at STP (20°C, 101.3 kPa).

Description of key information
Decomposes at 250 °C (no details are reported in the handbook on the determination, the reported value is assumed to have been determined at 20°C and 101.3 kPa)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The melting point of different perchlorates is stated in the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (D.R. Lide, 2010). Magnesium perchlorate (CAS 10034 -81 -8) decomposes at 250 °C. This result is supported by the data of Sodium perchlorate (CAS 7601 -89 -0), which decomposes at 482 °C, and Ammonium perchlorate (7790 -98 -9), which decomposes and explodes before melting, wherfore no temperature could be determined at all. These data confirm that perchlorate decompose before melting and a true melting point can not be determined.
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.
