Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

The appearance and physical state of the substance has also been confirmed by the Lead Registrant based on visual inspection (Zimmermann and Kinz 2016). Due to the explosive nature of the substance it is only manufactured as an aqueous solution. In 1997 the German competent authority BAM (Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung – EN:  Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing) attested in an expert opinion based on respective tests, that solid Tetraammineplatinum dinitrate belongs to explosives of class 1, while an aqueous solution <= 10 % w/w is not explosive and thus not classified as dangerous goods. Therefore, the substance is only manufactured as an aqueous solution and the solid is not isolated. Tetraammineplatinum dinitrate is a clear, transparent solution.
