Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The substance is not considered to be corrosive to metals.
Executive summary:

Justification according to the ECHA Guidance on the Application of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, page 185:

"Non-soluble solids are excluded from testing". Only "liquids and solids that may become liquids (during transport)" have to be considered for a CLP-classification as corrosive to metals. Solids may become liquids by melting (due to increase in temperature). "Solids having a melting point lower than 55 °C (which is the test temperature required for tests) must then be taken into consideration. The other physical way to transform a solid into liquid is by dissolution in water or another solvent."

The substance is soluble only to a very low degree. The substance has a melting point above 900 °C and it is not shipped as a solution. The substance therefore need not to be investigated for its possible corrosivity to metals.
