Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammability, other
- Type of information:
- calculation (if not (Q)SAR)
- Remarks:
- Migrated phrase: estimated by calculation
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- accepted calculation method
- Qualifier:
- no guideline followed
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The assessment was conducted based on direct observations during handling of the substance and when mixing with water. The substance is a liquid and EU Test Method A. 10, Flammability (solids) is not applicable.
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Interpretation of results:
- non flammable
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- The substance is considered to be non flammable.
- Executive summary:
The flammability of the test substance was assessed based on the properties of the substance and its chemical structure. Observations during handling of the substance for various physicochemical and toxicological testing showed that the substance did not ignite on contact with air and did not release harnful gases in contact with water. The substance was considered to be thermally stable and non flammable.
- Endpoint:
- flammable liquids: obsolete as covered by section 'Flash point'
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- other:

Description of key information
In accordance with section 1 of REACH Annex XI, the flammability study does not need to be conducted as the flammability is deduced from the flash point and the boiling point. Based on the chemical structure, pyrophoric properties are not to be expected. The water reactivity study does not need to be conducted as, based on the chemical structure of the substance, water reactivity is not to be expected.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
In accordance with section 1 of REACH Annex XI, the flammability study does not need to be conducted as the flammability is deduced from the flash point and the boiling point. Based on the chemical structure, pyrophoric properties are not to be expected. The water reactivity study does not need to be conducted as, based on the chemical structure of the substance, water reactivity is not to be expected.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the chemical structure, pyrophoric properties are not to be expected. The water reactivity study does not need to be conducted as, based on the chemical structure of the substance, water reactivity is not to be expected.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
