Reference
Endpoint:
oxidising solids
Type of information:
calculation (if not (Q)SAR)
Remarks:
Migrated phrase: estimated by calculation
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
02 April 2012
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Follows sound scientific evaluation based on structure and oxygen balance calculation and conducted in compliance with ISO 9001 accreditation.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: Scientific evaluation based on structure and oxygen balance calculation
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The oxygen balance is calculated from the empirical formula of the compound in percentage of oxygen required for complete conversion of carbon to carbon dioxide and hydrogen to water. A structural evaluation determines that oxidising potential based on the presence or absence of highly electronegative atoms.
GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:
Conducted in compliance with ISO 9001 accreditation
Key result
Sample tested:
other: QSAR
Parameter:
other: QSAR
Remarks on result:
other: Not oxidising on the basis of QSAR assessment.

The oxygen balance value of the substance was calculated to be -288.56. This is not indicative of the potential to cause oxidisation.

 

The following groups are known to cause oxidation:

 

- Peroxides

- Nitrate (salts or esters)

- Nitrites (salts or esters)

- Organic nitro compounds: Nitroalkyl, Nitroaryl, Fluorodinitro, Metal oxides, metal oxometallates, N-Halogen compounds, N-Haloimides, Difluoroamino, Difluoroaminopolynitroaryl

- Oxohalogen compounds: Acyl hypohalities, Hypofluorites, Bis(fluoroxy)perhaloakanes, Perchlorates, Chlorates, Chlorites, Hypochlorites, Perbromates, Bromates, Bromites, Hypobromites, Periodates, Iodates, Difluoroperchloryl salts, Dioxygenyl polyfluorosalts)

- Interhalogen compounds: Metal polyhalohalogenates.

 

The substance contains none of these groups. 

Interpretation of results:
other: no oxidising properties
Conclusions:
The substance is deemed not potentially oxidising, based on chemical structure and an oxygen balance of -288.56.
Executive summary:

Calculation based on structure and oxygen balance was carried out and determined that the substance was not potentailly oxidising. In accordance with EU-REACH regulations no further study needs to be carried out.

Description of key information

Key value determined by assessment of chemical structure and oxygen balance calculation.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:
no

Additional information

A substance may have oxidising properties when:

- the electromagnetic atoms which are present constitute a high proportion of the molecule and are bound to elements in a high oxidation state;

- the electronegative atoms are bonded to each other or to other electronegative elements such as iodine, nitrogen, sulphur or phosphorus.

The substance contains none of these atoms or elements and is deficient in oxygen (Oxygen Balance calculated as -288.56).
