AB - A complete 4-partite graph $K_{m₁,m₂,m₃,m₄}$ is called d-halvable if it can be decomposed into two isomorphic factors of diameter d. In the class of graphs $K_{m₁,m₂,m₃,m₄}$ with at most one odd part all d-halvable graphs are known. In the class of biregular graphs $K_{m₁,m₂,m₃,m₄}$ with four odd parts (i.e., the graphs $K_{m,m,m,n}$ and $K_{m,m,n,n}$) all d-halvable graphs are known as well, except for the graphs $K_{m,m,n,n}$ when d = 2 and n ≠ m. We prove that such graphs are 2-halvable iff n,m ≥ 3. We also determine a new class of non-halvable graphs $K_{m₁,m₂,m₃,m₄}$ with three or four different odd parts.
