Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
1) Explosive limits [vol% in air]: 3 - 18 (CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 2005)
2) Explosive limits [vol% in air]: 2.5 - 18 (Lange's Handbook of Chemistry, 1999)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- flammable
Additional information
Expert statement by applicant: the molecular structure of allyl alcohol does not contain groups that indicate potential reactivity with water or pyrophoric properties and handling of the substance indicates that this is the case.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Flammabilty: determined on basis of the flashpoint in combination with the boiling point.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
