Description of key information
A determination of particle size distribution (granulometry) need not be conducted on substances that are marketed or used in non-solid or non-granular form. Dimethyl terephthalate is not marketed or used in powder or granular form: it is commonly produced, transported and used in the molten state and as briquettes without respirable dust. If allowed to cool and solidify, the melt forms a rigid, solid cake. Milling or grinding would be necessary to transform the cake to a granule or powder (e.g. for testing purposes), but neither process is applied in the commercial production of DMT.
Additional information
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.
