Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 column 2 of REACH Annex VII, testing of explosive properties does not need to be conducted. Oleic acid-based TEA-Esterquat does not contain any structural groups known to be correlated with a particular explosion hazard. In addition, the thermodynamic calculations for the structurally related source substance partially unsaturated TEA-Esterquat indicate that the heat of decomposition and the comparison with the heat of combustion does not necessitate explosivity to be expected. Finally, the overall oxygen balance is negative. In conclusion, structural aspects and estimated thermodynamic properties indicate that oleic acid based TEA-Esterquat, which is structurally very close to partially unsaturated TEA-Esterquat, and therefore must not be considered to have explosive properties.

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). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
