Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

 In accordance with REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 Annex VII, column 2 section 7.13 the study does not need to be conducted since the substance is incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials on the basis of its constituents chemical structures. The substance does not contain constituents with oxygen or halogen atoms chemically bonded to nitrogen or oxygen. Furthermore, handling and use confirm that the substance is non-oxidizing.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:
non oxidising

Additional information

The registered substance is placed on the market as an aqueous solution. A study to determine the oxidising properties of Sophorolipids (aqueous solution) according to the regulation EU A21 is available (Processium 2012). The liquid to be tested is mixed in a 1:1 ratio, by mass, with fibrous cellulose and introduced into a pressure vessel. If during mixing or filling spontaneous ignition occurs, no further testing is necessary. The mean pressure rise time obtained with the mixture test item / cellulose was slower than the mean pressure rise time obtained with the reference item / cellulose mixture. The test item was not considered to have oxidizing properties under the experimental conditions.
