Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:

Key result
Sample tested:
test mixture (not specified)
Remarks:
migrated information
Parameter:
mean pressure rise time
Result:
> 100 s
Remarks on result:
other: The sample did not reach a pressure of 2070 kPa in any of the five tests.

The sample did not reach a pressure of 2070 kPa in any of the five tests:

 

X-16039: Cellulose (1:1)

Test 1 maximum pressure attained (kPa)

1822.4

Test 2 maximum pressure attained (kPa)

2005.1

Test 4 maximum pressure attained (kPa)

2064.4

Test 5 maximum pressure attained (kPa)

2058.2

Test 6 maximum pressure attained (kPa)

2069.2

* The vessel was observed to leak in test 3, hence the data from this test has not been reported.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
mmt did not reach a pressure of 2070 kPa in any of five replicates, therefore, mmt is not an oxidising liquid.
Executive summary:

The oxidising properties of mmt were determined in accordance with the EU method A21. Five tests were conducted in order to determine the potential of the sample to increase the burning rate of a combustible substance. mmt did not reach a pressure of 2070 kPa in any of the five tests.

Accordingly, mmt is not considered an oxidising liquid.

Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:
no

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

As mmt did not reach a pressure of 2070 kPa in the testing performed, it does not fulfill the classified criteria of an oxidising liquid.
