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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Thermal stability
DSC-measurements in closed glass crucibles with the test item showed two endothermal effects in the temperature range of 75 - 110 °C and 110 - 165 °C and an exothermal effect in the temperature range of 230- 360 °C with a maximum energy of 473 J/g .
The results are summarised in Table 1.

Explosive properties
The heat of decomposition was below 500 J/g. Therefore the main test on explosive properties was not necessary.
Conclusion: The test item had no explosive properties
Description of key information
The test item had no explosive properties in the sense of the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Test and Criteria, Appendix 6: Screening Procedures and in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A.14.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
The heat of decomposition was below 500 J/g. Therefore the main test on explosive properties was not necessary.
Conclusion: The test item had no explosive properties
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available data on explosivity 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 not an explosive according to the criteria of EC Method A.14.
