Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
melting point/thermal decomposition: 268°C
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- 268 °C
Additional information
In the Klimisch 1 non-GLP study from Kintrup (2012) the melting point of disodium (Z)-4-(9-octadecenylamino)-4-oxo-2(or 3)-sulphonatobutyrate was determined with the DSC method according to OECD 102 and EU method A.1. The test item did not show melting up to 268°C.Up to 268 °C the sample shows a weight loss of ca. 7 -9 weight%. From 268 °C the test item shows most probably a thermal decomposition with melting and evaporation of the decomposition components. A vaporization of significant parts of the test item cannot be completely excluded. In the temperature range between about 50°C and 240 °C the test item shows several partly reversible endothermic effects. This effect is possibly evaporation of sub components and / or solid– solid phase transformation. This effect is not the melting of the test item (main component) which was verified by subsequent tests with the Kofler-heating bank and with the melting in a capillary.
For the risk assessment a melting point of 268°C will be used.
This information is considered to be relevant and reliable for the further risk assessment.
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.
