Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.14 (Explosive properties)
Deviations:
no
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The test procedure described in Regulation (EC) No 440/2008, method A.14 need not be carried out when examination of the structural formula established beyond reasonable doubt that the substance has no explosive properties.
The reactive groups are listed e.g. in Bretherick's Handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, on page S20 ff, 5 th edition, 1995, Butterworth-Heinemann, Oxford
GLP compliance:
yes

Any other information on results incl. tables

The test substance contains none of the reactive groups that could be responsible for explosive properties. Therefore explosive properties of Grewe-diamin are unlikely.

The test substance is not classified as explosive.
