Key result
Sample tested:
other: expert statement on the test substance structure
Parameter:
other: expert statement
Remarks on result:
other: not oxidising

The test substance is a crystalline, but tenacious and sticky solid of white colour. Due to its hygroscopic behaviour, the test substance deliquesced when it is brought to the air for several minutes. According to the test guideline Directive 92/69/EC method A.10 (1992), 'Flammability of solids', the test substance is not highly flammable. During the flammability test, it was inflammable immediately by the hot flame of a gas burner. A spread out of the combustion zone over a distance of 100 mm in 96 seconds was observed after removal of the ignition flame. The combustion process was almost complete. Beside the properties mentioned above, test substance has no oxidising
potential under normal conditions. The molecular structure contains no oxygen. The test substance burns, but it has no oxidising properties.

Interpretation of results:
other: no oxidising properties
Conclusions:
According to the expert statement, the test substance did not present any oxidising properties.
Executive summary:

An expert statement evaluated the oxidising properties of the test substance, C12-16 ADBAC (94.4% active) based on EU Method A.17. The test substance is a crystalline, but tenacious and sticky solid of white colour. Due to its hygroscopic behaviour, the test substance deliquesced when it is brought to the air for several minutes. According to the test guideline Directive 92/69/EC method A.10 (1992), 'Flammability of solids', the test substance is not highly flammable. During the flammability test, it was inflammable immediately by the hot flame of a gas burner. A spread out of the combustion zone over a distance of 100 mm in 96 seconds was observed after removal of the ignition flame. The combustion process was almost complete. Beside the properties mentioned above, test substance has no oxidising potential under normal conditions. The molecular structure contains no oxygen. The test substance burns, but it has no oxidising properties. According to the expert statement, the test substance did not present any oxidising properties (Schulze, 2007).

Description of key information

The oxidising properties were evaluated in an expert statement based on EU Method A.17 (Schulze, 2007)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:
non oxidising

Additional information

According to the expert statement, the test substance did not present any oxidising properties.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the structure, the test substance does not warrant a classification for oxidising properties according to EU CLP criteria (Regulation EC 1272/2008).
