Description of key information

According to an accepted and validated procedure for assessing explosion risk on theoretical grounds dialuminium titanium pentaoxide is not considered to be explosive.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

Examination of the chemical structure of the substance indicates it does not contain any of the groups associated with explosive properties. Although the substance contains oxides of aluminium and titanium, the oxygen atoms are strongly bound to the metal atoms to form a stable chemical structure and do not impart explosive properties to the material. This substance is not classified as dangerous for supply or use, and the oxygen balance is not applicable to an inorganic substance. The substance is exposed to vigorous heating conditions without any adverse affect during the industrial production of a ceramic material. It can be predicted that the substance does not possess explosive properties.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The substance is considered to not possess explosive properties and it is concluded that the substance Dialuminium Titanium Pentaoxide 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.
