Key result

Parameter:

other: theoretical basis

Remarks on result:

other: no oxidising properties

The structure contains no groups that would infer oxidising properties. Therefore the result has been predicted negative.

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The test substance is not an oxidising substance based on its chemical structure.

Description of key information

The substance was concluded to be non-oxidising based on its chemical structure in an Expert Statement (Covance, 2019).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:

non oxidising

Justification for classification or non-classification

The structure of THEMAH contains no groups that would infer oxidising properties. This results in an absence of classification under the CLP regulation.
