Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the organic substance does not contain metals or metalloids and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied
Endpoint:
flammable liquids: obsolete as covered by section 'Flash point'
Data waiving:
study technically not feasible
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a liquid
Endpoint:
pyrophoric liquids
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days) and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied

Description of key information

Resorcindiacetate is not flammable in contact with water. Testing according to UN-MTC procedure N.5 is not necessary with reference to Appendix 6, chapter 5.3.. The structural formula of resorcindiacetate contains none of the functional groups quoted in UN-MTC (appendix 6, article 5.3) which may react with water to emit flammable gases. Testing according to UN-MTC procedure N.5 is not necessary with reference to Appendix 6, chapter 5.3.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

a.) Flammability (liquid): The study must not be conducted because the subtance is a liquid.

b.) Contact with Water: The structural formula of resorcindiacetate contains none of the functional groups quoted in UN-MTC (appendix 6, article 5.3) which may react with water to emit flammable gases. Testing according to UN-MTC procedure N.5 is not necessary with reference to Appendix 6, chapter 5.3..

c.) Pyrophoric properties: Resorcindiacetate did not deliver indications of pyrophoric properties during the realization of other tests. The determination according to UN-MTC Procedure N.3 is not necessary.
