- Executive summary:
Experimental techniques are available for the classification of a substance or preparation as oxidising. These are described in EC Test A17 (solids) and EC Test A21 (liquids). However, Test A17 / A21 need not be carried out when examination of the structural formula establishes beyond reasonable doubt that the substance has no oxidising properties.
Examining the structural formula, the following observations can be made:
The molecule does not contain any functional groups which may cause oxidising properties. 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:
The highly 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 SE7B the proportion of electronegative atoms in the molecule is low (6 oxygen atoms out of an overall atom count of 188). All oxygen atoms are bound to carbon atoms.
the highly electronegative atoms are bonded to each other or to other electronegative elements such as iodine, nitrogen, sulphur or phosphorus.
In the case of SE7B, the electronegative atoms are not bound to one another, nor to any other electronegative elements.
Assessment against these two criteria indicates strongly that the molecule will not have oxidising properties.
In every respect of the oxidising liquids exemption procedure, SE7B 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.
