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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Flash point
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- flash point of flammable liquids
- Data waiving:
- study technically not feasible
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because the flash point is only relevant to liquids and low melting point solids
- Justification for type of information:
- JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
According to REACH Annex XI/section 2, flash point measurement applies only to liquids.
As presented under IUCLID Section 4.1 and 4.2, the substance is a solid, with no melting up to the higher classification threshold for flammable liquids (i.e. 60°C for CLP criteria, 93°C for GHS criteria).
Therefore the study is not relevant.
Please refer to Flammability (Flammable solids) under IUCLID Section 4.13.

Reference
- Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
- solid
Yellow crystals.
Color may turn to green or brown if exposed to light or heating.
Several literature sources provide a consistent description of the substance. The most recent review was considered as key data.
Supporting information on crystal structure and color changes is also available.
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- data waiving: supporting information
Reference
No melting up to 300°C, followed by decomposition.
No experimental study is available for the substance.
From several secondary literature sources, in a Weight-of-Evidence approach, the melting point is unclear, with values ranging between ca 320 and 390°C. However, no transition is observed below 300°C, and decomposition occurs above this temperature. Therefore, no key data is retained.
It should also be noted that conformational/structural changes may occur in TATB, which may explain the different values.

- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Data waiving:
- study technically not feasible
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted for explosives
- Justification for type of information:
- JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
According to REACH Annex VII/column 2, the study does not need to be conducted if the substance is a solid which possesses explosive properties.
As presented under IUCLID Section 4.1 and 4.14, the substance is a solid, classified as Explosive of Division 1.1.
Therefore the study is not required. - Reason / purpose for cross-reference:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
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.
