Screening evaluation

Analysis of the molecular structures of the substance revealed, that that no chemical alert structures associated with explosive properties are present in the molecule.

Calculation of the oxygen balance according to the above mentioned formulas is -198.86 for main component 1 and -203.4 for main component 2 and therefore are about the trigger value of -200 for the 1:1 mixture.

Determination of the exothermic decomposition energy

The curve displayed no exothermic peaks up to 315 °C with no energy release at all.

 

As a result the energy release is below a critical trigger level of 500 J/g with the onset of energy release being below 500 °C.

Interpretation of results:
other: considered to be non-explosive according to Directive 67/548/EEC and Regulation (EC) 1272/2008
Conclusions:
The substance is considered to be non-explosive according to Directive 67/548/EEC and Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and no further testing is required.
Executive summary:

The explosive properties of FAT41039/A were estimated based on the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (Manual of Tests and Criteria, Annex 6, Orange Book, 3rd edition, 1999). Analysis of the chemical structure revealed no alerts for explosive properties. The calculated chemical oxygen balance is about the trigger value of -200 and the determination of the exothermic decomposition energy demonstrated no critical energy release below substance decomposition takes place and below the critical value of 500 J/g. Therefore the substance is considered to be non-explosive according to Directive 67/548/EEC and Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and no further testing is required.

Description of key information

The substance is considered to be non-explosive according to Directive 67/548/EEC and Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and no further testing is required.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

The explosive properties of FAT 41048/A were estimated based on the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (Manual of Tests and Criteria, Annex 6, Orange Book, 3rd edition, 1999). Analysis of the chemical structure revealed no alerts for explosive properties. The calculated chemical oxygen balance is about the trigger value of -200 and the determination of the exothermic decomposition energy demonstrated no critical energy release below substance decomposition takes place and below the critical value of 500 J/g. Therefore the substance is considered to be non-explosive according to Directive 67/548/EEC and Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and no further testing is required.

Justification for classification or non-classification

FAT 41048/A is considered to be non-explosive, and hence no classification for explosiveness is warranted according to the criteria of Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP).
