Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
Appearance
On the basis of available data, the appearance of test chemical was observed to be crystalline solid.
Melting point
Based on the available data from handbooks, authoritative and modelling databases, the melting point of test chemical was determined to be 52.5°C.
Boiling Point
On the basis of data fromhandbook and authoritative databases, the boiling point of test chemical was determined to be 253°C at 101591.64 Pa.
Density
Based on the available data from handbooks and authoritative databases, the density of test chemical was determined to be 1.22 g/cm3 at 25°C.
Particle size distribution
The particle size distribution of test chemical was determined by granulometric analysis with rotap sieve shaker. The particle size distribution was determined to be in the range of 150 micron to 106 micron.
Vapour pressure
Based on the available data from authoritative and modelling databases, the vapour pressure of test chemical was determined to be 0.0122 mmHg (1.626 Pa) at 25°C.
Partition coefficient
On the basis of data fromhandbook, the partition coefficient value of test chemical was determined to be 2.14 by Shake-flask method using GLC. Based on this value, test chemical was considered to be hydrophilic in nature.
Water solubility
Based on the available data from handbooks, the water solubility of test chemical was determined to be 3558 mg/l at 25°C by Shake flask method using GLC. Based on this value, test chemical was considered to be soluble in water.
Surface tension
The study does not need to be conducted because surface activity is not a desired property of the material.
Flash point
Based on the available data from handbook, the flash point of test chemical was determined to be 136°C. Thus, on the basis of criteria mentioned in CLP regulation, the chemical has flash point > 60°C hence the substance was considered to be not flammable.
Auto flammability
Test chemical did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°C pressure of 962 hPa. This indicates that the test chemical is not auto-flammable.
Flammability
Test chemical does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus it can be concluded that test chemical is not flammable.
Explosiveness
The study does not need to be conducted because the there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties.
Oxidizing properties
The study does not need to be conducted because the organic substance does not contain oxygen or halogen atoms and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied.
pH
Based on the available data from authoritative database, the pH of test chemical was determined to be 5.9 at 20°C and conc. of 1000 g/l indicating that the test chemical was considered to be acidic in nature.
Viscosity
The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a solid.
