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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- explosive properties of explosives
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study without detailed documentation
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: UN Test Series 1 and 2
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The following tests were run:
Koenen-Test
Time pressure test
Trauzl-Test with standard nr. 8 detonator - GLP compliance:
- no
- Parameter:
- other: Explosive (not specified)
- Remarks:
- migrated information
- Remarks on result:
- negative (not further specified)
- Interpretation of results:
- non explosive
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Executive summary:
Explosive Properties of hydrazine hydrate were tested accordin to the UN Test Series 1 and 2 showing no explosive properties of the test item (Currenta, 2010).
Reference
Koenen-Test:
- 1 mm diameter of the orifice plate: tube unchanged
- 2 mm diameter of the orifice plate: tube unchanged
- 6 mm diameter of the orifice plate: tube unchanged
Result: negative
Time pressure test:
Pressure of 20.7 bar not reached
Result: negative
BAM Trauzl-Test with standard nr. 8 detonator:
low
According to the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria, further testing towards a propagation of detonation in a steel tube (UN 1(a) and UN 1(b)) is required if the result of the Trauzl test is "not low", and no further testing for propagation of detonation is required if the Trauzl test yields the answer "no". However, due to the toxic and cancerogenic properties of Hydrazine and concerns of workplace safety, the steel tube tests could not be performed. The results of the Trauzl test appear to be closer to the lower border line of the test criteria, which means that in tests 1(a) and 2(a) a negative result ("-") would be anticipated.
Therefore, it is to be concluded that the following final results are obtained:
Test Series 1 ("Is it an explosive susbtance ?"): No
Test Series 2: ("Is the substance too insensitive for acceptance into Class 1?"): Yes
Hydrazinhydrate has no explosive properties
Description of key information
Explosive Properties of hydrazine hydrate were tested accordin to the UN Test Series 1 and 2 showing no explosive properties of the test item (Currenta, 2010).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the available information, hydrazine hydrate does not fulfill the criterion for classification according to the EC regulation No 1272/2008, Annex I.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
