- Endpoint:
- 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 substance is a 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
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Data waiving:
- study technically not feasible

- 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

Description of key information
Sodium lactate is a non-flammable substance.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
The test item is not classified as a flammable solid, flammable gas, pyrophoric liquid, pyrophoric solid, self-heating substance or as substance which emits flammable gases in contact with water. The substance to be registered as such is a solid. However, the marketed product is an aqueous solution which cannot be transformed into a solid substance (by evaporation) due to strong hygroscopic properties of Sodium lactate. Thus, in accordance with REACH Annex XI, section 2, it is technically not possible to test the solid substance for flammability.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The test material is not flammable. No classification is required.
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.
