Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Non explosive
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
To determine, whether the dye structure itself could harbour explosive properties the following assessment is considered:
Column 2 of REACH Regulation Annex VII provides the following specific rules for adaptation of the standard information requirement for explosive properties. The study does not need to be conducted if:
• there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule, or
•the substance contains chemical groups associated with explosive properties which include oxygen and the calculated oxygen balance is less than 200, or
•The organic substance or a homogenous mixture of organic substances contains chemical groups associated with explosive properties, but the exothermic decomposition energy is less than 500 J/g and the onset of exothermic decomposition is below 500 °C.
Solvent Brown 41 contains azo groups (-N=N-structural alerts as reported in Table R.7.1.-28 of the Information Requirements Guidances) which are structural alerts for explosive properties.
However, the thermal behaviour of the substance was tested by DSC from 40° to 440°C. The onset of decomposition is below 500°C (i.e. 227°C) and the decomposition energy is below 500 J/g (ca. 316 J7g). Based on all the above considerations, Solvent Brown 41 is not considered explosive and the explosive properties test does not need to be conducted.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance is not classified as explosive under Regulation 1272/2008
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.
