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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Sample weight remains stable till to 320°C in air
Additional information
Thermal stability on 133-66-4 was investigated by:
1) Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC),
2) Thermogravimetric analisys (TGA).
1) DSC: sample (7-8 mg) were closed in Aluminium pan and heated from 40°C to 400°C at 10°C/minute heating rate. DSC profile shows an endotermic event from 100°C to 200°C with two maxima that is due to water desorption. From 320°C an exothermic deflection of the base line clearly indicate thermal decomposition of the optical brightener.
2) TGA: sample were heated in inert atmosphere (Nitrogen) from 40 to 850°C at 20°C heating rate. TGA loss profile confirms the water release at lower temperatures. Sample weight remains stable till to 330°C. At higher temperature a progressive weight loss is due to the sample decomposition.
Justification for classification or non-classification
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.
