The handbook contains a statement that the limit for explosivity is 2% or 118 g/m³. No further information was provided. Since the data from this handbook are reviewed, this data point is considered reliable even if experimental details were not provided.
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.
