Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Based on the internationally recognized UN Recommendation criteria the test substance is considered to be non-oxidizing and therefore is not to be tested experimentally for the classification under division 5.1 as oxidizing substances. Thus it can be concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that the test substance is not capable of causing fire or enhancing the risk of fire when in contact with combustible material.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Oxidising properties:
- no
Additional information
The oxidizing properties of the test substance are screened based on the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (Orange Book, 3rd edition, 1999) where a set of criteria is compiled to evaluate the need for classification of materials as oxidizing substances. According to the criteria as described in the above mentioned UN document:
• the classification procedure using experimental testing need not be applied for organic compounds if the compound does not contain oxygen, fluorine or chlorine. and
• the classification procedure using experimental testing need not to be applied for organic compounds if the compound contains oxygen, fluorine or chlorine and these elements are chemically bonded only to carbon or hydrogen. The test substance contains oxygen that is bonded to carbon or hydrogen only. Thus, the conditions of the UN recommendations are fulfilled.
Based on the internationally recognized UN Recommendation criteria, the test substance is considered to be non-oxidizing and therefore is not to be tested experimentally for the classification under division 5.1 as oxidizing substances. Thus it can be concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that the test substance is not capable of causing fire or enhancing the risk of fire when in contact with combustible material.
Justification for classification or non-classification
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.
