Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
According to the provisions of EU A.14 method, expert judgement considered the test substance to be void of any chemical structures commonly associated with explosive properties.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
According to the provisions of EU A.14 method, expert judgement considered calcium dihydroxide to be void of any chemical structures commonly associated with explosive properties.
The explosive properties of calcium carbonate have also been predicted negative based on the chemical structure and experience of handling and use. On this basis all grades of calcium dihydroxide may be considered to be not explosive, irrespective of the calcium carbonate content.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Calcium dihydroxide and calcium carbonate are predicted negative for explosivity based on chemical structure. No classification is required for any grade of calcium dihydroxide, irrespective of calcium carbonate content.
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.
