Reference
Endpoint:
oxidising solids
Type of information:
other: Structural assessment
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
Not applicable
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
A structural assessment to identify the presence of chemical groups associated with oxidising properties.
GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:
No laboratory work was performed in this study. GLP is therefore not required.
Sample tested:
other: not applicable
Parameter:
other: Structural assessment
Remarks on result:
other: Although the test material contains oxygen, this is chemically bonded only to carbon and hydrogen, and therefore it should not be classified as an oxidising substance.

Structural Assessment

An examination of the structure demonstrates that although the test material contains oxygen, this is chemically bonded only to carbon and hydrogen, and therefore it should not be classified as an oxidising substance.

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified in accordance with EU criteria
Conclusions:
The structural examination of the test material confirms that it should not be classified as an oxidising substance.
Executive summary:

Oxidising properties are associated with the presence of reactive groups or oxidising compounds in a molecule known to increase oxidising power. For organic compounds, the classification procedure for oxidising substances of Division 5.1 need not be applied if: the compound does not contain oxygen, fluorine or chlorine or, the compound contains oxygen, fluorine or chlorine and these elements are chemically bonded only to carbon or hydrogen

An examination of the structure demonstrates that although the test material contains oxygen, this is chemically bonded only to carbon and hydrogen, and therefore it should not be classified as an oxidising substance.

The structural examination of the test material confirms that it should not be classified as an oxidising substance.

Description of key information

The structural examination of the test material confirms that it should not be classified as an oxidising substance.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:

Additional information

Oxidising properties are associated with the presence of reactive groups or oxidising compounds in a molecule known to increase oxidising power. For organic compounds, the classification procedure for oxidising substances of Division 5.1 need not be applied if: the compound does not contain oxygen, fluorine or chlorine or, the compound contains oxygen, fluorine or chlorine and these elements are chemically bonded only to carbon or hydrogen

An examination of the structure demonstrates that although the test material contains oxygen, this is chemically bonded only to carbon and hydrogen, and therefore it should not be classified as an oxidising substance.

The structural examination of the test material confirms that it should not be classified as an oxidising substance.

Justification for classification or non-classification

An examination of the structure demonstrates that although the test material contains oxygen, this is chemically bonded only to carbon and hydrogen, and therefore it should not be classified as an oxidising substance.

As such it is considered justified not to classify the substance with regards to potential oxidising properties.
