Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
The substance is considered to not possess explosive properties and it is concluded that the substance Amides, tall oil fatty. N,N-dimethyl, (DMATO)is unlikely to undergo rapid decomposition with the production of gases or release of heat sufficient to cause damage to the surroundings, and therefore does not present a risk of explosion.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Examination of the chemical structures of the major constituents present in the substance confirms they include nitrogen and oxygen atoms, but they are not configured into any of the groups classically associated with explosive properties. Since the calculated oxygen balances are below -200, it can be predicted that none of the three main constituents possess explosive properties. The minor constituents are chemically similar to the main constituents and would not be expected to possess explosive properties. The substance is considered to not possess explosive properties and it is concluded that the substance Amides, tall oil fatty. N,N-dimethyl, (DMATO) is unlikely to undergo rapid decomposition with the production of gases or release of heat sufficient to cause damage to the surroundings, and therefore does not present a risk of explosion.
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.
