Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- oxidising liquids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- november-december 2017
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.21 (Oxidising Properties (Liquids))
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Contact with:
- other: cellulose
- Duration of test (contact time):
- 4 h
- Key result
- Sample tested:
- test mixture 1:1
- Parameter:
- mean pressure rise time
- Result:
- 20.11 s
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The oxidising properties of 3-methylsulfolane were tested in contact with dried cellulose and with reference to 65% nitric acid. The mean pressure rise time of 3-methylsulfolane was 20.11 seconds. The test substance, 3-methylsulfolane was found to have a mean pressure rise time greater than that observed for the nitric acid reference substance. The test substance 3-methylsulfolane is therefore not considered to be an oxidising liquid.
- Executive summary:
The substance 3-methylsulfolane has a mean pressure time of 20.11 seconds according to the regulation guideline EU Method A.21. The test substance, 3-methylsulfolane was found to have a mean pressure rise time greater than that observed for the nitric acid reference substance. The test substance is therefore not considered to be an oxidising liquid.
