Description of key information
non flammable on ignition (EU A.10)
no pyrophoricity
no flammability on contact with water
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
According to the manufacturer's experience, and available experimental evidence on a variety of alkyl sulfates, solid forms of bulk density < 400 g/L are flammable on ignition, whereas solid forms of higher bulk density > 400 g/L are non-flammable. In terms of aggregate state, this corresponds approximately to powders and granulates, respectively.
Based on experience in handling and use and the chemical structure, pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not to be expected.
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging (CLP) of substances and mixtures, the dry substance, characterized by bulk density < 400 g/L, is considered to be a flammable solid, Category 1 (H228). However, the substance is marketed only in the high water content states (paste or aqueous solution), and no risk of flammability is expected.
Based on the chemical structure and experience in handling and use, pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not expected.
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.
