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

From the assessment of the chemical structure it was established that the test substance, EP-4000S, would not have oxidising properties.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:
no

Additional information

Determination of oxidising properties was conducted as part of a package of physicochemical testing on EP-4000S (Huntingdon Life Sciences, 2012, Study CVJ0131).

In accordance with column 2 of Annex VII of the REACH Regulation, an experimental determination of the oxidising properties of EP-4000S was not required as EP-4000S is incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials on the basis of an examination of the structure. The structure of EP-4000S does not contain halogen atoms, and the oxygen atom contained within the structure is not chemically bonded to nitrogen or other oxygen atoms (i.e. it is not an organic peroxide).

Justification for classification or non-classification

On the basis of an assessment of the chemical structure it was determined that EP-4000S would not posess oxidising properties; the substance therefore does not meet the criteria for classification as an oxidiser.
