Description of key information
It is pyrophoric once isolated from solvent/volatiles and the aluminum-methyl bonds react violently with water releasing flammable methane gas.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- pyrophoric
Additional information
It also reacts with water emitting flammable gases (methane).
Justification for classification or non-classification
It is pyrophoric once isolated from solvent/volatiles and the aluminum-methyl bonds react violently with water releasing flammable methane gas.
It also reacts with water emitting flammable gases (methane).
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.
