Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Oxidising properties
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- oxidising solids
- Type of information:
- other: Expert statement
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: Accepted and validated procedure for assessing oxidising properties on theoretical grounds.
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.17 (Oxidising Properties (Solids))
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Parameter:
- other: No testing carried out - determined to be unncessary
- Remarks on result:
- not measured/tested
- Remarks:
- No testing carried out - determined to be unncessary
- Interpretation of results:
- other: no oxidising properties
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- Examination of the chemical structure of the substance confirms that only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms are present. The oxygen atom is not part of a characteristic structural group of concern for oxidising properties, and nitrogen is absent from the structure. According to the information notified to the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) Classification and Labelling Inventory database, Octanal is not classified for explosive or oxidising properties. It can be predicted that the substance does not possess oxidising properties, or contribute to the combustion of other materials.
It is therefore concluded that Octanal is unlikely to be an oxidising substance. - Executive summary:
