Description of key information
a) The test substance propagated burning of a 200 mm length of the powder train in 355 seconds when tested according to UN Test Procedure N.1. Concluding, Ca-/Mg-salt of fumarated Tall Oil Rosin is classified as not readily combustible solid.
b) The flammability of a substance on contact with water is commonly determined following the methods N.5 (UN-Manual of testing) or A.12 (EU-method).
However, in accordance with section 1 of REACH Annex XI, a study does not need to be conducted as it is scientifically unjustified. Based on experience during handling and use, the substance does not liberate highly flammable gases on contact with water or humid air.
c) Pyrophoric properties are commonly determined following the methods N.3 (UN-Manual of testing) or A.13 (EU-method).
However, in accordance with section 1 of REACH Annex XI, a study does not need to be conducted as it is scientifically unjustified. Based on experience during handling and use, no pyrophoric properties were observed and the structure does not give a reference to pyrophoric properties.
Key value for chemical safety assessment

- non flammable
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
The determined flash point of 8.5 °C reflects the properties of toluene rather than of Ca/Mg-salt of fumarated Tall Oil Rosin. Therefore, the flash point was not used in the scope of classification and labelling.
Ca/Mg-salt of fumarated Tall Oil Rosin is classified as not readily combustible solid when tested according to UN Test Procedure N.1.
Based on experience during handling and use of the substance pyrophoric properties can be excluded.
Based on the available information, experience during handling and use of the substance flammability on contact with water or humid air can be excluded.
Based on the available information, Reaction Product of Ca(OH)2, MgO and Tall Oil Pitch has not to be classified for flammable properties according to Directive 67/548/EEC or Regulation EC 1272/2008.
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.
