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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Explosiveness
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- explosive properties of explosives
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties
- Justification for type of information:
- According to Annex VII, section 7.11, column 2 of Regulation No. 1907/2006, explosive properties of the substance are not required if there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule. Potential explosive properties are indicated by the presence of certain reactive groups in the molecule. The molecular structure of sodium pentaborate indicates that such groups are not present. No reactive or unstable groups are present and it does not contain any functional groups quoted in the "Manual of Tests and Criteria" (fourth revised edition, appendix 6, table A6.1) or in Bretherick's-Handbook (6th Edition, Volume 2) as indicating explosive properties. It can therefore be concluded by expert judgment that the molecular structure does not indicate that this substance will explode under the conditions of the test as described in Test Guideline A.14 of EC Directive 92/69/EEC and therefore testing is not required.

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.
