Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
It is concluded based on the chemical functionality present within the substance that Amorphous carbon and silicon dioxide recovered from two-stage pyrolysis of
spent tyres does not have explosive properties and does not require classification for explosive properties.
Executive summary:

An evaluation of the functionality within the substance has been performed to identify the presence of elements
commonly associated with explosive properties as described in Table A6.1 in Appendix 6 of the UN
Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Test and Criteria.


The raw materials used to manufacture the substance do not contain any halogens or nitrogen and these
elements are not present in the final product. Oxygen and metals are contained within Amorphous carbon and
silicon dioxide recovered from two-stage pyrolysis of spent tyres, however it is not contained within a chemical
group considered to be associated with explosive properties, as stated in section 2.1.4.3 of the CLP regulation.


It is concluded that Amorphous carbon and silicon dioxide recovered from two-stage pyrolysis of
spent tyres does not have explosive properties and does not require classification for explosive properties.

Description of key information
