Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- According to the structure of the substance and on the basis of functional groups that may have explosive properties (Bretheriek's handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, Butterworths, 4th Edition), it is possible to exclude beyond reasonable doubt that phosphinic acid 60% has explosive properties.
Moreover, this substance is classified in class 8 N° UN 3264 (corrosive liquid, acidic, inorganic) according to UN regulation on transport of dangerous goods which confirms the previous conclusion made on the basis of functional groups. - Executive summary:
Expert statement (as cited in the report):
According to the structure of the substance and on the basis of functional groups that may have explosive properties (Bretheriek's handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, Butterworths, 4th Edition), it is possible to exclude beyond unreasonable doubt that phosphinic acid 60% has explosive properties.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
