Reference
Endpoint:
explosive properties of explosives
Type of information:
other: Structural assessment
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
Not applicable
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
A structural assessment to identify the presence of chemical groups associated with explosive properties.
GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:
No laboratory work was performed in this study. GLP is therefore not required.
Test series:
other: Not applicable
Method:
other: Structural assessment
Parameter:
other: Not applicable to a structural assessment
Result:
other: Not applicable
Remarks on result:
not measured/tested
Remarks:
An examination of the structure demonstrates that the test material contains none of the example chemical groups indicating explosive potential and that it should not be classified as an explosive.

Structural Assessment

An examination of the structure demonstrates that the test material contains none of the example chemical groups indicating explosive potential and that it should not be classified as an explosive.

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified in accordance with EU criteria
Conclusions:
The structural examination of the test material confirms that it should not be classified as an explosive substance.
Executive summary:

Explosive properties are associated with the presence of certain chemical groups in a molecule which can react to produce very rapid increases in temperature or pressure. The acceptance procedure for Class I explosives need not be applied when there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule.

An examination of the structure demonstrates that the test material contains none of the example chemical groups indicating explosive potential and that it should not be classified as an explosive.

The structural examination of the test material confirms that it should not be classified as an explosive substance.

Description of key information

The structural examination of the test material confirms that it should not be classified as an explosive substance.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

Explosive properties are associated with the presence of certain chemical groups in a molecule which can react to produce very rapid increases in temperature or pressure. The acceptance procedure for Class I explosives need not be applied when there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule.

An examination of the structure demonstrates that the test material contains none of the example chemical groups indicating explosive potential and that it should not be classified as an explosive.

The structural examination of the test material confirms that it should not be classified as an explosive substance.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the compositional description and the structural formula of the substance it can be concluded that there are no functional groups associated with explosive properties or tendencies that would indicate that this substance will manifest explosive properties. As such it is considered justified not to classify the substance with regards to potential explosive properties.
