Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
According to the literature survey study
on flammability, explosive properties, oxidising properties of the test item APX20P that was performed to collect data, in order to determine if the experimental studies on flammability (ECC A12, A13, A15, A16) ,explosive properties (A14) and oxidising properties (A17) were necessary to be conducted on the substance.
The substance can be considered as :
-Non flammable
-Non pyrophoric
-Non flammable on contact with water
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- not classified
Additional information
Based on the structural formula of the components of the test item (xyloside) and (free alcohol with flash point ⩾ (189°C), no potential hazardous reaction is expected if the substance is in contact with water.
When heated under GLP conditions, the test item shows decomposition at 98.5°C without ignition; therefore no spontaneous ignition is to be feared at ambiant temperature.
The substance does not ignite and propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering, so it is not necessary to conduct the flammability test.
The mean flash point of the test item under GLP conditions is 224.5°C hence no potential for self-ignition at ambiant temperature.
As a conclusion the substance can be considered as not flammable.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available literature survey data on the flammability of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to the Regulation (EC 1272/2008) and therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classifiaction.
The substance can be considered as non flammable solid.
Based on the chemical stucture and experience in handling and use, pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not expected.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
