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:
JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING

The first stage of the screening procedure is to examine the chemical structure and check for the presence of groups associated with explosive properties.
The appraisal of the molecular structure indicates no risk of rapid decomposition. 1,1,2-trichloro-1-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)-ethane does not contain any of the structural features mentioned in the Table R.7.1-28 of REACH Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment - Chapter R7a. Therefore no other steps of the screening procedure are required and it can be concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that
1,1,2-trichloro-1-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)-ethane does not possess explosive properties.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment- Chapter R7a
Deviations:
no
Parameter:
other: Explosiveness
Remarks on result:
negative (not further specified)
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Based on structure
Conclusions:
Basing on the chemical structure, it can be concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that 1,1,2-tricloro-1-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)-ethane does not have explosive properties.
Executive summary:

The explosive properties of 1,1,2-trichloro-1-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)-ethane were evaluated according to the procedure described in the REACH Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment- Chapter R7a where a set of criteria is described to identify materials being potential explosives.

The first step of the screening procedure is to examine the chemical structure and check for the presence of groups associated with explosive properties.

1,1,2-trichloro-1-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)-ethane does not contain functional groups and elements that are known to confer explosive properties.The appraisal of the molecular structure indicates no risk of rapid decomposition.

Thus no other steps of the screening procedure are required and it can be concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that 1,1,2-trichloro-1-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethoxy)-ethane does not have explosive properties.
