Explosiveness

Administrative data

Endpoint:

explosive properties of explosives

Data waiving:

study scientifically not necessary / other information available

Justification for data waiving:

the study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties

Justification for type of information:

From the chemical structure of tetrasodium hydrogen 2 -phosphanobutane-1,2,4 -tricarboxylate it can be concluded, that the substance is not explosive. The structural formula contains none of the functional groups quoted in Recommendation on the Transport of Dangerous Goods - Manual of Tests and Criteria, fourth revised edition, appendix 6, table A 6.1. With respect to the EC-guideline 1907/2006 (REACH), appendix VII, point 7.11 the performance of the test is not necessary.
