Endpoint:
substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
21 February 2018 - 11 May 2018
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
UN Manual of Tests and Criteria: Test N.5 (Test method for substances which in contact with water emit flammable gases)
GLP compliance:
yes
Key result
Max. rate of gas release:
0 L/kg h
Identity of evolved gas:
not applicable as no gas evolved

No flammable gases produced

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Contact of 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate with water resulted in the no gas being evolved. 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate should not be classified in Division 4.3
Executive summary:

In accordance with  UN Test Method N.5 following GLP conditions, contact of 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate with water resulted in the no gas being evolved. 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate should not be classified in Division 4.3

Endpoint:
pyrophoric liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
21 February 2018 - 11 May 2018
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
UN Manual of Tests and Criteria: Test N.3 (Test method for pyrophoric liquids)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes
Test procedure:
ignition time on contact with air
Remarks on result:
no ignition within 5 minutes
Test procedure:
effect on filter paper
Remarks on result:
no charring

Effect of Exposure to Air Replicates 1-6: No ignition

Effect on Filter Paper Replicates 1-3: No charring

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Exposure of 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate to air for 5 minutes resulted in no ignition. 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate resulted in no charring on filter paper. Both tests indicate test substance should not be classified in Division 4.2.
Executive summary:

In accordance with  UN Test Method N.3 following GLP conditions, exposure of 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate to air for 5 minutes resulted in no ignition. 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl methacrylate resulted in no charring on filter paper. Both tests indicate test substance should not be classified in Division 4.2.
