Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Details on results:
Insol in water, reacts slowly.

HMDZ undergoes rapid hydrolysis in the presence of water; the half life at pH 7 and 1.5°C is <0.5 minutes. Based on the chemical structure of HMDZ, this hydrolysis is expected to produce ammonia (CAS No. 7664-41-7) and trimethylsilanol (CAS No. 1066-40-6). Ammonia was previously assessed in the OECD HPV Chemicals Programme. Because HMDZ is hydrolytically unstable, water solubility and partition coefficient were not measured; modeled values are provided. In aqueous solutions, exposures to HMDZ are likely to betransient and observed toxicity is likely due primarily to the hydrolysis products
