Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

A test substance is considered an oxidizing substance2 when the burning time of a mixture of the substance and cellulose in a 4:1 or 1:1 sample-to-cellulose ratio (by mass) is less than or equal to the mean burning time of a 3:7 reference mixture (by mass) of potassium bromate and cellulose. 
The purity of the test substance is shown in paragraph 6.1. The molecular structure of the test substance is archived in the raw data due to confidentiality reasons. The test substance does not contain groups that act as an oxidizing agent. The oxygen atoms that are present in the molecular structure of the test substance are chemically bonded to carbon.
In conclusion, Ester G has no oxidizing properties.

The test substance does not contain groups that act as an oxidizing agent. The oxygen atoms that are present in the molecular structure of the test substance are chemically bonded to carbon.

In conclusion, Ester G has no oxidizing properties.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on analysis of structural groups present in the molecule the substance is not considered oxidising (See analytial report below). Thus, the substance is not subject to classification and labelling according to CLP (Regulation EC No 1272/2008) or DSD (Directive 67/548/EEC).
