Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

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. F-Diox Acid 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.

The occurrence of other chemical groups associated with explosive properties as described in the literature was also considered. None of those groups are present in the molecule.

 

No other steps of the screening procedure are required and it can be concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that F-DIOX Acid does not have explosive properties.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

F- Diox Acid 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. It can be concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that F-DIOX Acid does not have explosive properties.

Executive summary:

The explosive properties for F-Diox Acid was 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.

F- Diox Acid 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. No other steps of the screening procedure are required and it can be concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that F-DIOX Acid does not have explosive properties.

 

According to the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008, F- Diox Acid would indicate the following:

Classification: not required

Signal word: none indicated

Hazard statement: none indicated
