Endpoint:

oxidising solids

Data waiving:

study scientifically not necessary / other information available

Justification for data waiving:

other:

Justification for type of information:

In accordance with column 2, point 7.13 of Annex VII of the Regulation EC 1907/2006 testing for this endpoint does not need to be performed if the substance is incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials, for example on the basis of the chemical structure (e.g. organic substances not containing oxygen or halogen atoms and these elements are not chemically bonded to nitrogen or oxygen, or inorganic substances not containing oxygen or halogen atoms). The structure of the substance is considered below:

-Method:
The oxidising properties were predicted using Method A.17 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).

-Procedure:
The structure of the test material was assessed for chemical groups that would imply oxidising properties. Examples of such groups are nitrates, metal oxides, hypofluorites, difluoroaminopolynitroaryls, perchlorates, bromates and iodites.
Full structural details are given in Bretherick’s Handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, 4th Edition, Butterworths, London, 1990.

-Conclusion:
Based on the chemical structure of the test material the result for the oxidising properties has been predicted to be negative.

Justification for classification or non-classification

In accordance with the screening criteria for oxidising properties in section 2.1.4.4.1 of Regulation EC 1272/2008 and section 6 of the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods Manual of Tests and Criteria (5th revised edition) structural analysis of the molecule concluded that the substance is not an oxidiser. Therefore the substance is not classified as oxidising in accordance with Annex I of Regulation EC 1272/2008 (CLP).
