Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

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

Justification for type of information:
JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
In accordance with section 1 of REACh Annex XI, study for explosive properties is deemed unnecessary based on the experience in handling and use of the substance. No experience in handling, testing and use of the registered substance has been reported, which could cast doubt on the NON-explosivity of the extract (see endpoint 4.11 for example).
Moreover, in accordance with column 2 of REACh Annex VII, the study does not need to be conducted if there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule. According to Regulation (EC) N°1272/2008 (CLP) criteria and screening procedure (as listed in appendix 6 to the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods - Manual of Tests and Criteria (6th revised edition, 2015) or in the ECHA endpoint specific guidance on information requirements (R.7a, v6.0, July 2017, §R.7.1.11), NO REACTIVE GROUP was identified in the list of known constituents of the substance.
Finally, DSC analyses (till 450°C) have been conducted on the substance during the boiling point determination (see endpoint 4.3), showing a decomposition of the substance from approximately 312°C but with a decomposition energy < 500J/g (104J/g on one DSC run). In addition, other DSC screening tests have been performed on other natural complex substances, such as labdanum gum and cistus absolute SIS (extracts from the same botanical source) and the results showed that no explosive properties are anticipated on this kind of substances.
Therefore, explosive properties are not anticipated for the registered susbtance and the acceptance procedure for Class 1 explosives shall not apply. No further testing was considered.
