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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- In a GLP-study according to EU Method A.14, the registered substance was not explosive.
- Executive summary:
The explosive properties of CARDOLITE NC-513 were determined following EU A.14.
In the test for thermal sensitivity, no explosion was observed.
In the test for mechanical sensitivity (shock), no explosion was observed using an impact energy of 40 J.
The test item CARDOLITE NC-513 can be considered as:
“not explosive under the conditions of guideline EU A.14”.
Reference
In the tests for thermal sensitivity, using the orifice of 6 mm, the test item started to burn under sooting after 4 minutes and after another 30 seconds, the flame was well visible. In the tests using the orifice of 2 mm, the test item burned with a visible, sooting flame after 4 minutes and after 4 min and 30 seconds, a flame fountain with a few sparkles was observed.
In the test for mechanical sensitivity (shock), formation of steam, but no explosion was observed throughout the experiments. According to the national reference institute (BAM, Bundesanstalt für Materialprüfung), the formation of steam is no sign of explosive properties.
Description of key information
Explosiveness (determined using EU Method A.14; GLP): non explosive
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
In a GLP-study according to EU Method A.14, the registered substance was not explosive.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the non-exploisve results of a study according to EU Method A.14, the registered substance does not need to be classified for explosiveness.
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).
