Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Oxidising properties
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- oxidising solids
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with oxidising properties and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied
- Endpoint:
- oxidising solids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Study period:
- 12-17 Nov 1998
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.17 (Oxidising Properties (Solids))
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Contact with:
- powdered cellulose
- Remarks on result:
- other: negative
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met

Preliminary test:
Concerning the test mixture (substance/cellulose ratio 2/1), only on ignition by the hot wire
Main study:
Cellulose/substance ratios 90/10, 80/20, 70/30, 60/40, 50/50, 40/60: the mixture burns, but no propagation
Cellulose/substance ratios 30/70, 20/80, 10/90: the mixture burns then melts, but no propagation.
Conclusion: the substance has no oxidising properties under the conditions of this test. Since the criteria of UN O.1 and UN O.3 are met, the substance is not oxidising according to CLP.
Description of key information
not oxidising
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Oxidising properties:
- non oxidising
Additional information
There are no chemical groups associated with the oxidising properties in the molecule of the substance. This is confirmed by the test results according to EU Method A.17.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available data on oxidising properties of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification: The substance is not oxidising, since there are no chemical groups associated with oxidising properties present in the molecule. This is confirmed by the result of the EU A.17 test.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
