Description of key information
The study for flammability of solids does not need to be conducted because the substance is a liquid. However, the racemic form of the substance (50:50 mixture of D-Tetramethrin and L-Tetramethrin), being solid and melting at 72 - 74 °C has been assessed for flammability of solids and during pre-test it was seen that when heated with the flame of a Bunsen-burner the racemic mixture did melt but did not ignite. Thus, the substance D-tetramethrin is considered non-flammable and non-pyrophoric. Additionally, as experience in production and handling shows that the substance is non-pyrophoric and does not react with water, further studies assessing flammable gases being released upon contact with water are also not required.
Thus, it can be concluded that the substance is non-flammable, non-pyrophoric and not emitting flammable gases in contact with water.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- not classified
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on available supporting studies on the racemic form, it can be concluded that the substance is non-flammable, non-pyrophoric and not emitting flammable gases in contact with water. Thus, classification for flammability according to the classification criteria in CLP (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008) is not required.
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.
