Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
The substance is non flammable in contact with water and not pyrophoric.The preliminary test according to method A 10 "Flammability (solids)" of Directive 92/69/EEC was performed and the substance was found to be not "highly flammable" according to the criteria of the directive.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
The preliminary test according to method A 10 "Flammability (solids)" of Directive 92/69/EEC was performed and the test substance was found to be not "highly flammable" according to the criteria of the directive. Based on the evaluation of the structural formula of BMH (absence of structural alerts) and experience with handling during testing it was concluded that the test substance 1. is incapable of developing a dangerous amount of (flammable) gas when coming into contact with air, damp air or water and 2. does not ignite spontaneously when coming into contact with air. The test substance is thus non flammable in contact with water and not pyrophoric.
No UN test is available. However, because no propagation of combustion was seen in the EC A.10 test, further testing according to UN scheme is not required. In conclusion, BMH does not need to be classified and labelled as flammable according to EC 1272/2008.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance is non flammable in contact with water and not pyrophoric.The preliminary test according to method A 10 "Flammability (solids)" of Directive 92/69/EEC was performed and the substance was found to be not "highly flammable" according to the criteria of the directive.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
