- Parameter:
- other: Explosive (not specified)
- Remarks:
- migrated information
- Remarks on result:
- not measured/tested
- Interpretation of results:
- non explosive
- Conclusions:
- No mechanical sensitivity (shock test) was observed with the test item during the six assays. No heat sensitivity (flame test) was observed with the test item during the six assays.
The test item is not considered to have explosive properties in the experimental conditions applied. - Endpoint:
- explosive properties of explosives
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties

Description of key information
In accordance with REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 Annex VII, column 2 section 7.11 the study does not need to be conducted based on structural assessment of the substance. The substance constituents do not contain groups associated with explosive properties. Furthermore, handling and use confirm that the substance does not have explosive properties.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
The registered substance is placed on the market as an aqueous solution. A study to determine the explosive properties of Sophorolipids (aqueous solution) is available (Processium 2012, performed according to the Regulation (EC) n°440/2008, A.14: “EXPLOSIVE PROPERTIES”, May 2008.). Preliminary tests, called Safety-in-handling tests, are necessary to establish safety conditions for the performance of the assays of sensitivity for the main tests. They consist of exposure of a very small
sample (about 10 mg) of the test item, to impact (shock) in suitable apparatus, and to unconfined heating directly with the flame of a gas burner. Main tests (mechanical sensitivity and heat sensitivity) are then performed with samples of 10 cm3.
No signs of explosion were recorded in the “safety-in-handling tests”. No mechanical sensitivity (shock test) was observed with the test item during the six assays. No heat sensitivity (flame test) was observed with the test item during the six assays. The test item is not considered to have explosive properties in the experimental conditions applied.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
