Key result
Sample tested:
test mixture 1:1
Parameter:
mean pressure rise time

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item Petroleum Resins (Kendex 0897) is considered as not oxidising, as the increase in pressure took place very slowly, taking much more time than the reference mixture.
Therefore, Petroleum Resins (Kendex 0897) should not be classified as oxidizing liquid.
Executive summary:

Determination of the oxidising properties of Petroleum Resins (Kendex 0897) according to EU A.21

 

Findings and Results: 

Five determinations were performed with the test item Petroleum Resins (Kendex 0897), using a mixture with cellulose.

 

No signs of oxidising properties of the test item could be observed throughout the course of the test as all experiments reached a pressure above 2070 kPa, taking much more time than the reference mixture.

The variation of all evaluated experiments was below 30 %.

The reference mixture of cellulose and nitric acid (65 %) showed a fast increase above 2070 kPa within 2.95 seconds. Therefore, the determination can be considered to be valid. No observations were made which might cause doubts concerning the validity of the study outcome.

 

Therefore, Petroleum Resins (Kendex 0897) should not be classified as oxidizing liquid.

Description of key information

No signs of oxidising properties of the test item could be observed throughout the course of the test as all experiments reached a pressure above 2070 kPa.

Justification for classification or non-classification

No signs of oxidising properties of the test item could be observed throughout the course of the test as all experiments reached a pressure above 2070 kPa, taking much more time than the reference mixture.

Therefore, Petroleum Resins (Kendex 0897) should not be classified as oxidizing liquid.
