Description of key information
Anhydrous dimethyl sulphate is not corrosive to metals.
Additional information
A literature review was conducted. In a weight of evidence approach the literature values were evaluated. HSDB reports the substance to be corrosive to metals in the presence of water. The BAM-List (Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing) reports that steels and aluminium can be used for transportation of the test substance since the material is water and acid-free.
Therfore the substance or mixture does not need to be classified as corrosive to metals according to the criteria of Regulation (EC) No 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.
