Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
oxidising solids
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials
Endpoint:
oxidising solids
Type of information:
other: Expert statement
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
accepted calculation method
Remarks:
Expert statement
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Oxidising properties estimated from structural formula
GLP compliance:
not specified
Key result
Sample tested:
other: From the structural formula it can be concluded that the substance has no oxidising properties
Parameter:
other: From the structural formula it can be concluded that the substance has no oxidising properties
Remarks on result:
mixture does not ignite and burn
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
From the structural formula it can be concluded that trisodium EDDS has no oxidising properties
Executive summary:

The oxidising properties of trisodium EDDS have been assessed from its structural formula.

According to an Expert statement, trisodium EDDS does not contain any reactive groups that might lead to spontaneous oxidation of combustable products.

Trisodium EDDS contains no fluorine or chlorine, and the oxygen elements are chemically bonded to carbon or hydrogen, therefore trisodium EDDS would not be classified as oxidising according to EU CLP regulation.

Description of key information

According to an Expert statement, it can be concluded (from its structural formula) that trisodium EDDS has no oxidising properties

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:
non oxidising

Additional information

The oxidising properties of trisodium EDDS have been assessed from its structural formula. According to an Expert statement, trisodium EDDS does not contain any reactive groups that might lead to spontaneous oxidation of combustible products. Therefore, it can be concluded that trisodium EDDS has no oxidising properties (van Helvoirt, 1993g).

In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the study (required in section 7.13) does not need to be conducted as the substance (on the basis of chemical structure) is incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials (i.e. it does not contain halogen atoms, and the oxygen elements are not chemically bonded to nitrogen or oxygen).

Justification for classification or non-classification

Trisodium EDDS contains no fluorine or chlorine, and the oxygen elements are chemically bonded to carbon or hydrogen, therefore trisodium EDDS would not be classified as oxidising according to EU CLP regulation.
