Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Any other information on results incl. tables

Examining the structural formula, the following observations can be made:

• The molecule does not contain any functional groups. Although this list is not exhaustive, this is a significant observation as most commonly occurring oxidising functional groups are contained within the list.

• According to the two criteria quoted, oxidising properties can exist when:

o the electronegative atoms which are present constitute a high proportion of the molecule and are bound to elements in a high oxidation state

􀂃 In the case of Resin Acids and Rosin Acids, Fumarated, Reaction Product with Pentaerythritol, the proportion of electronegative atoms in the molecule is relatively low (14 oxygen atoms out of an overall atom count of 143). All oxygen atoms are bound to carbon atoms. o the electronegative atoms are bonded to each other or to other electronegative elements such as iodine, nitrogen, sulphur or phosphorus.

􀂃 In the case of Resin Acids and Rosin Acids, Fumarated, Reaction Product with Pentaerythritol, the electronegative atoms are not bound to one another, nor to any other electronegative elements.

o Assessment against these two criteria indicates strongly that the molecule will not have oxidising properties.

In every respect of the oxidising solids exemption procedure, the material does not show any evidence of possessing oxidising properties.

On the basis of this exercise, the material should be considered as not oxidising and should not be subjected to experimental testing. The material meets all criteria for exemption from testing and has a structure not at all conducive with that required to exhibit oxidising tendencies.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: no evidence of possessing oxidising properties
Conclusions:
The substance shows no evidence of possessing oxidising properties.
