Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the explosiveness study (required in section 7.11) does not need to be conducted as the substance does not contain chemical groups indicating explosive properties (as mentioned in the ECHA endpoint specific guidance). Also, the heat of decomposition (in the temperature range up to 500 degrees Celsius) is deltaH=~320 J/g (experimental value) and therefore not above the limit value of 500 J/g for potentially explosive materials according to REACH Annex VII column 2. The calculated oxygen balance (OB) for LL is OB= -290 and therefore below the limit value of OB= -200 for potentially explosive substances in REACH Annex VII column 2. Therfore Linalool is not to be classified as explosive material and no experimental determination according to EC testguideline A.14 has to be performed.
Executive summary:

In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the explosiveness study (required in section 7.11) does not need to be conducted as the substance does not contain chemical groups indicating explosive properties (as mentioned in the ECHA endpoint specific guidance). Also, the heat of decomposition (in the temperature range up to 500 degrees Celsius) is deltaH=~320 J/g (experimental value) and therefore not above the limit value of 500 J/g for potentially explosive materials according to REACH Annex VII column 2. The calculated oxygen balance (OB) for Dehydrolinalool is OB= -283 and therefore below the limit value of OB= -200 for potentially explosive substances in REACH Annex VII column 2. Therefore Dehydrolinalool is not to be classified as explosive material and no experimental determination according to EC testguideline A.14 has to be performed.
