Additional information

According to REACH Regulation (Annex XI, 2.), a study does not need to be done if testing is not feasible. Cumene hydroperoxide has a self-accelerating decomposition temperature of ca. 80°C. Therefore cumene hydroperoxide will decompose under the test conditions which have to be applied for the determination of the self-ignition temperature (reference SADT: CLP regulations 2.15.2.3 and UN Recommendations on the transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, sub-sections 28.1, 28.2, 28.3, and Table 28.3).
