Description of key information
The test item is not considered to exhibit a danger of explosion under the effect of heating nor to shock and to ignition.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
The explosiveness of the test item was investigated (BASF SE, 17/0070, 2017) according to the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and UN Transport Regulations test series 1 and 2. For safety reasons the sensitivity to impact and friction was tested in a preliminary test. Assessment of the results within the meaning of the tests showed that there is no violent effect from intensively heating the substance under high confinement. Furthermore, test 1 (c) showed that the maximum pressure reached is less than 2070 kPa gauge. Proven by results of test 2 (c), the time for a pressure rise from 670 kPa to 2070 kPa is 30 ms or more, whereby a pressure of 2070 kPa gauge was not reached. Therefore, the test substance shows slow or no deflagration. In conclusion, the test item is not considered to exhibit a danger of explosion.
Justification for classification or non-classification
In accordance with Annex I, Section 2.1 of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, as amended for the tenth time in Regulation (EC) No 2017/776, and UN GHS Rev 7 (2017) the substance has not to be classified as explosive in class 1.
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.
