Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
pyrophoric solids
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days) and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied
Justification for type of information:
JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
Based on experience in manufacturing and handling, the substance does not ignite spontaneously on coming into contact with air at normal temperatures. Therefore, the classification procedure for pyrophoric solids need not be applied.Furthermore, there are no functional groups within the test item molecule that could cause pyrophoricity or flammability in contact with water, basis: "Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment", Chapter R.7a: Endpoint specific guidance, R.7.1.10.3 and table R.7.1-27 (ECHA, May 2008).

Remarks on result:
other: Solid not flammable
Interpretation of results:
non flammable
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The test substance is not a flammable solid.
Executive summary:

The flammability of the test substance was determined according to ONU N.1, réf. ST/SG/AC.10/11/Rev.5. The test substance is not a flammable solid.

Endpoint:
substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the experience in production or handling shows that the substance does not react with water, e.g. the substance is manufactured with water or washed with water
Justification for type of information:
JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
Based on experience in production and handling, the substance does not react with water. Furthermore, there are no functional groups within the test item molecule that could cause pyrophoricity or flammability in contact with water, basis: "Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment", Chapter R.7a: Endpoint specific guidance, R.7.1.10.3 and table R.7.1-27 (ECHA, May 2008).

Description of key information

Key study: The flammability of the test substance was determined according to ONU N.1, réf. ST/SG/AC.10/11/Rev.5. The test substance is not a flammable solid.

Data waiving: Based on experience in manufacturing and handling, the substance does not ignite spontaneously on coming into contact with air at normal temperatures. Therefore, the classification procedure for pyrophoric solids need not be applied. Based on experience in production and handling, the substance does not react with water. Furthermore, there are no functional groups within the test item molecule that could cause pyrophoricity or flammability in contact with water, basis: "Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment", Chapter R.7a: Endpoint specific guidance, R.7.1.10.3 and table R.7.1-27 (ECHA, May 2008).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
non flammable

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the available information, the test item is not classified for flammability according to CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008.
