Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Soluble silicates are inorganic substances. They are not combustible, self-igniting or explosive.
Description of key information
Not flammable on ignition.
Not pyrophoric.
Not flammable in contact with water.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- not classified
Additional information
The study does not need to be conducted, since the substance is inorganic. Pyrophoricity is not a concern based on the chemical structure and the experience in handling and use. Soluble silicates do not spontaneously ignite when in contact with air. Soluble silicates are non flammable.
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging (CLP) of substances and mixtures, the substance is considered to be a non-flammable solid. Based on the chemical structure and experience in handling and use, pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not expected.
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.
