Description of key information
The substance has been determined, using EU method A17, not to have oxidising properties as the test material/cellulose mixtures failed to propagate combustion at a rate greater than or equal to that of barium nitrate/cellulose mixtures.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Oxidising properties:
- no
Additional information
The oxidising properties of the test material were investigated in a study which was conducted in accordance with the standardised guideline EU Method A.17. The study was awarded a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).
Under the conditions of the study, the test material was determined not to have oxidising properties as the test material/cellulose mixtures failed to propagate combustion at a rate greater than or equal to that of the barium nitrate/cellulose mixtures.
Justification for classification or non-classification
In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in Annex I, Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, the substance does not require classification with respect to oxidising properties.
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).
