Key result
Test series:
other: not specified
Method:
other: not specified
Parameter:
other: not specified
Remarks on result:
not measured/tested
Remarks:
The components of the test substance do not contain any chemically instable or highly energetic groups that might lead to an explosion. It is not to be expected that an interaction between the different components occurs. The oxygen balance was not calculated due the complexity of the test substance. In conclusion, the substance is not explosive.

A14 (statement):

The components of the test substance do not contain any
chemically instable or highly energetic groups that might
lead to an explosion. It is not to be expected that an
interaction between the different components occurs. The
oxygen balance was not calculated due the complexity of the
test substance. In conclusion, the test substance is not
explosive.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In conclusion, Reaction products of Fatty acids, C16-18 and C18-unsatd. and reaction mass of 1,3-alkanediol, 2-(hydroxymethyl)-2-[(methoxymethoxy)methyl]- and 1,3-heteromonocycle-5,5-dimethanol is not explosive.

Description of key information

The test substance is considered ‘not explosive’.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

The components of the test substance do not contain any chemically instable or highly energetic groups that might lead to an explosion. It is not to be expected that an interaction between the different components occurs. 

Justification for classification or non-classification

The substance does not have to be classified for explosiveness according to CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
