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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- explosive properties of explosives
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 15 MAR 2013 - 28 MAY 2013
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.14 (Explosive properties)
- Version / remarks:
- European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008
- Deviations:
- no
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: OECD 113
- Version / remarks:
- 1981
- Deviations:
- no
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: OCSPP 830.6316
- Version / remarks:
- 1996
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Parameter:
- other: decomposition energy
- Remarks:
- via thermal stability with DSC
- Remarks on result:
- other: determined decomposition energy is < 500 J/g
- Interpretation of results:
- other: EU GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The test item has no explosive properties.
- Executive summary:
Th explosive properties of the test item was assessed according to EU Method A.14 in a non-GLP study. As the DSC-measurement shows, that the heat of decomposition is below 500 J/g the main test has not to be performed and the test item has no explosive properties in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A. 14. and in the sense of the EPA Product Properties Test Guideline OCSPP 830.6316.
Reference
The heat of decomposition was below 500 J/g. Therefore the main test on explosive properties was not necessary.
Description of key information
Th explosive properties of the test item was assessed according to EU Method A.14 in a non-GLP study. As the DSC-measurement shows, that the heat of decomposition is below 500 J/g the main test has not to be performed and the test item has no explosive properties in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A. 14. and in the sense of the EPA Product Properties Test Guideline OCSPP 830.6316.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
The test item has a decomposition temperature below 500 J/g and has therefore not to be classified as explosive substance.
