Thus it can be concluded that 2 -[2 -[4 -[(2 -chloroethyl)ethylamino]-o-tolyl]vinyl]-1,3,3 -trimethyl-3H-indolium chloride is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus 2 -[2 -[4 -[(2 -chloroethyl)ethylamino]-o-tolyl]vinyl]-1,3,3 -trimethyl-3H-indolium chloride was considered non-flammable for chemical safety assessment.

Explosiveness:

The study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties.

Oxidizing properties:

The study does not need to be conducted because the organic substance contains oxygen or halogen atoms which are chemically bonded only to carbon or hydrogen and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied.

Stability in organic solvents and identity of relevant degradation products :

The study does not need to be conducted because the stability of the substance is not considered to be critical.

Dissociation constant :

The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is readily oxidisable in water.

Viscosity :

The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a solid.
