Description of key information
a) Flammability: Testing according to the EU method A.10, no visible flames of smouldering parts of the sample could be observed. Thus, the substance is regarded as not flammable.
b)Flammable gases and liquids:In accordance with section 2.2 and section 2.6 of Annex I of the CLP Regulation, the studies do not need to be conducted, as these sections relate to gases and liquids, respectively.
c)Flammable aerosols: In accordance with section 2.3 of Annex I of the CLP regulation 1272/2008, a study does not need to be conducted, as the substance is a solid, not containing components which are classified as flammable.
d) Pyrophoric properties: In accordance with section 1 of REACH Annex XI, a study does not need to be conducted as based on experience during handling and use, no pyrophoric properties were observed and the structure does not give a reference to pyrophoric properties.
e) Contact with water: In accordance with section 1 of REACH Annex XI, the study does not need to be conducted as the substance contains no metals or metalloids and therefore will not release flammable gases in contact with water.
f) self-heating:Determination of the self-heating behaviour was performed according to the UN-MTC, test N.4, section 33.3.1.6, showing that the substance does not exceed the oven temperature by more than 8°C during the testing time. Thus, the substance is not to be considered as a self-heating substance.
g) self-reactive: In accordance with section 2.8 of Annex I of the CLP Regualtion 1272/2008, the study does not need to be conducted as based on structure, the substance is not a self-reacting substance. The substance does not contain reactive groups (according to UN-MTC, 2003, Annex 6, Table 6.1and 6.2).
h) Organic peroxide: In accordance with part 2, section 2.15 of Annex I of the CLP Regulation 1272/2008, the substance does not need to be assessed for organic peroxide properties, as based on its chemical structure, the substance is not an organic peroxide.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
The flammability of the substance was tested according to the EU method A.10. As during the test no visible flames of smouldering parts of the sample could be observed, the substance is regarded as not flammable.
Determination of the self-heating behaviour was performed according to the UN-MTC, test N.4, section 33.3.1.6. It was shown that the substance does not exceed the oven temperature by more than 8°C during the testing time. Based on this result, the substance is not to be considered as a self-heating substance.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance is not flammable, it has no pyrophoric properties, no flammability in contact with water, is not a self-heating and a self-reactive substance, is not an organic peroxide; and hence no classification according to both Directive 67/548/EEC and GHS (Regulation EC 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.
