Summary:

With respect to the EC test guideline A.14, the test substance can be classified as not explosive.

Interpretation of results:
non explosive
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
A conclusion of not explosive was determined in a reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol, and in compliance with GLP.

Description of key information

Methyl-N-{[dimethoxy(methyl)silyl]methyl}carbamate: Not explosive

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

The parent substance is not explosive according to EU Method A.14.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The available data on explosivity of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification. There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule. Available data for silane substances indicates that this class of substances does not show explosive properties.
