Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

TGA EXPERIMENT (PRELIMINARY TEST)

- 25% weight loss at 433°C

- 70% weight loss at 471°C

After the experiment, a black brown molten residue remained in the sample container (original colour: white). The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

DSC EXPERIMENT 1

An endothermic peak was observed between 25°C and 100°C. The endothermic effect was most likely caused by melting of the test item.The extrapolated onset temperature was 59.722°C. An exothermic peak was observed from 200°C. The exothermic effect was probably caused by reaction and/or decomposition of the test item. After the experiment, an orange molten residue remained in the sample container (original colour: white). The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item. 

DSC EXPERIMENT 2

In order to investigate the melting peak, a second experiment was performed and the end temperature was set to stop shortly after the melting peak. The extrapolated onset temperature was 59.319°C. After the experiment, a colourless molten residue remained in the sample container (original colour: white). It demonstrated that melting was the reason for the endothermic effect.

DATA HANDLING

The melting temperature was determined as the mean melting temperature of Experiment 1 (59.722°C) and Experiment 2 (59.319°C).

TGA and DSC curves are attached as background material.

Conclusions:
The melting temperature of the substance was determined to be 59.5°C (332.7 K).
Executive summary:

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) experiments were performed in a GLP study according to EC A.1, OECD 102 and OPPTS 830.7200.

The melting temperature of the substance was determined to be 59.5°C (332.7 K).

TGA EXPERIMENT (PRELIMINARY TEST)

- 25% weight loss at 433°C

- 70% weight loss at471°C

After the experiment, a black brown molten residue remained in the sample container (original colour: white). The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.

DSC EXPERIMENT 1

An exothermic peak was observed from 200°C. The exothermic effect was probably caused by reaction and/or decomposition of the test item.After the experiment, an orange molten residue remained in the sample container (original colour: white). The change of the colour indicated reaction and/or decomposition of the test item. 

CONCLUSION

Reaction and/or decomposition of the test itemwas observed during the DSC experiment at temperatures of > 200°C (> 473K). Boiling of the test item was not observed below the temperature at which reaction and/or decomposition started. Based on this, the test item has no boiling temperature.

TGA and DSC curves are attached as background material.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Reaction and/or decomposition of the substance was observed at temperatures > 200°C. Since boiling of the substance was not observed below the temperature at which reaction and/or decomposition started, it is concluded that the substance has no boiling temperature.
Executive summary:

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) experiments were performed in a GLP study according to EC A.2, OECD 103 and OPPTS 830.7220.

Reaction and/or decomposition of the substance was observed at temperatures > 200°C. Since boiling of the substance was not observed below the temperature at which reaction and/or decomposition started, it is concluded that the substance has no boiling temperature.
