Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
oxidising solids
Data waiving:
study technically not feasible
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted for organic peroxides

Description of key information

For oxidising solids, the study is waived because according to 7.13 of Annex VII to the REACH Regulation, column 2, the study does not need to be conducted if...the substance is an organic peroxide.

Further, Section 2.13.3. of the ECHA Guidance on the Application of the CLP Criteria states that "The classification procedures and criteria for oxidising substances or mixtures is not applicable for organic peroxides....The majority of the organic peroxides do not possess oxidising properties; their main hazards are reactivity and flammability. Under CLP organic peroxides are comprised in a separate hazard class (CLP Annex I, 2.15) and they must not be considered according to the procedures described for oxidising liquids. Organic peroxides were classified as oxidising (O; R7) according to the DSD, which was not appropriate since the vast majority of them do not exhibit oxidising properties."
