- Executive summary:
The test substance was found not to possess oxidising properties under the conditions of the test.
- Endpoint:
- oxidising properties
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Study period:
- 2002-04-16 - 2002-07-18
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: according to UN-Guideline (comparable with Guideline study (OECD, EU etc.)
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: UN Test 0.1 of the Recommandations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (Manual of Tests and Criteria, 2nd revised edition).
- Deviations:
- no
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The test method is designed to measure the potential for a solid test substance to increase the burning rate or intensity of a combustible substance. The test substance was mixed with dry fibrous cellulose. The burning characteristics were compared with standard mixtures of potassium bromate and cellulose. The assessment was then used to assign a Packing Group to the test substance.
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Contact with:
- other: dry fibrous cellulose
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Since the substance samples did not burn to completion and therefore exceeded the burning time of the 3:7 ratio of the reference substance, the test substance should not be classified in Division 5.1.
- Conclusions:
- Oxone®: cellulose mixtures were found not to burn to completion and therefore the test substance should not be classified in Division 5.1 according to the UN Transport Regulations.
- Executive summary:
Materials and methods
The test method is designed to measure the potential for a solid test substance to increase the burning rate or intensity of a combustible substance. The test substance was mixed with dry fibrous cellulose. The burning characteristics were compared with standard mixtures of potassium bromate and cellulose. The assessment was then used to assign a Packing Group to the test substance.
Results and discussion
Since the substance samples did not burn to completion and therefore exceeded the burning time of the 3:7 ratio of the reference substance, the test substance should not be classified in Division 5.1
Referenceopen allclose all
The test substance was found not to possess oxidising properties under the conditions of the test.
Since the substance samples did not burn to completion and therefore exceeded the burning time of the 3:7 ratio of the reference substance, the test substance should not be classified as a United Nation class 5.1 oxidizer by test 0.1 tests for oxidizing solids.
Description of key information
According to the results obtained form one key and one supporting study, the test substance was found to have no oxidising properties under the conditions of the test.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Oxidising properties:
- no
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
In accordance with Annex I, Section 2.4, Section 2.13 and Section 2.14 of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and UN GHS Rev 6 (2015) the substance has not to be classified as oxidising gas, oxidising liquid or oxidising solid in class 5 Division 5.1.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
