Description of key information

The test substance has no oxidizing properties.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:
no

Additional information

In a GLP compliant study, performed according to EU method A.17, the oxidising properties of the test substance were determined (Shell Research and Technology Centre, 2007). The maximum rate of burning for potassium ferrite/cellulose was 0.494 mm/s, achieved using 70% m/m potassium ferrite. The average burning rate over the six replicate tests using 70% m/m test substance was 0.487 mm/s. The maximum burning rate of the reference mixture barium nitrate/cellulose (60:40) was 1.0 mm/s. The maximum rate of buming for the test substance was thus less than that for barium nitrate. Therefore it was concluded that the test substance had no oxidizing properties.

Justification for classification or non-classification

As the test substance has no oxidizing properties, classification is not needed according to the Directive 67/584/EEC and according to the EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
