Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

6X Ball Fall Hammer tests were all negative. All tests reported that when the assembly was dismantled there were signs of decomposition. The sample had turned black in colour. 3X Koenen steel tube test: tube recovered intact. Mean water content 44.473 % w/w (2 determinations)

Interpretation of results:
non explosive
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Platinium IV nitrate (liquid) has been determined not to have explosive properties
Executive summary:

This is a GLP compliant, guideline study considered suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint. Platinium IV nitrate (liquid) has been determined not to have explosive properties

Description of key information

The solid form of platinum dinitrate is not considered to be explosive as the exothermic decomposition energy is less than 500 J/g and the onset of exothermic decomposition is below 500°C. The substance is inorganic and DSC measurement was conducted (Michael-Schulz 2016). The DSC measurements did not show any exothermic peak and therefore this substance is not considered to be explosive.

Platinum IV nitrate (liquid) has been determined not to have explosive properties

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

The solid form of platinum dinitrate is not considered to be explosive as the exothermic decomposition energy is less than 500 J/g and the onset of exothermic decomposition is below 500°C. The substance is inorganic and DSC measurement was conducted (Michael-Schulz 2016). The DSC measurements did not show any exothermic peak and therefore this substance is not considered to be explosive. In consequence, no experimental verification is required and platinum dinitrate is considered to be non-explosive.

Supporting data is available for platinum IV nitrate (liquid) (Safepharm Laboratories 2000), which is a GLP compliant, guideline study considered suitable for use as supporting data for this endpoint. Platinum IV nitrate (liquid) has been determined not to have explosive properties.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The solid form of platinum dinitrate is not considered to be explosive as the exothermic decomposition energy is less than 500 J/g and the onset of exothermic decomposition is below 500°C. The substance is inorganic and DSC measurement was conducted (Michael-Schulz 2016). The DSC measurements did not show any exothermic peak and therefore this substance is not considered to be explosive.
