Test material

Constituent 1
Reference substance name:
Nitric acid
EC Number:
231-714-2
EC Name:
Nitric acid
Cas Number:
7697-37-2
Molecular formula:
HNO3
IUPAC Name:
nitric acid
Test material form:
liquid
Specific details on test material used for the study:
No tests were perfomed by the producers. The Ispopropyl nitrate is clasified in class 3 - flammable liquids using the UN Manual for Tests and Criteria. As the the registered substance is an isopropyl ester with the nitric acid, we consider the acid as refererance substance the oxydising properties test.

Results and discussion

Test results (Oxidising liquids)
Sample tested:
reference mixture (not specified)
Parameter:
preliminary test
Remarks on result:
other: Not enough information to clasify the registered substance as an oxidising liquid.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not sufficient information to clasify the substance as an oxidising liquid.
Conclusions:
Based on the GHS criteria the substance is clasified as Skin irritating Category 2.
The available experimental data shows that the Isopropyl nitrate is used as a source of oxygen in a process of burning in mixtures with other substances.
