Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- explosive properties of explosives
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties
- Endpoint:
- explosive properties of explosives
- Type of information:
- other: Expert statement
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- accepted calculation method
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Explosiveness assessed from structural formula
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Key result
- Remarks on result:
- negative (not further specified)
- Remarks:
- From the structural formula it can be concluded that the substance is not explosive
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- According to an Expert statement, trisodium EDDS does not contain any chemically instable or high energetic groups that might lead to an explosion.
- Executive summary:
The explosive properties of trisodium EDDS have been assessed from its molecular formula.
According to an Expert statement, trisodium EDDS does not contain any chemically instable or high energetic groups that might lead to an explosion, and therefore it would not be classified as an explosive substance according to EU CLP regulation.

Description of key information
Trisodium EDDS does not contain any chemically instable or high energetic groups that might lead to an explosion.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
The explosive properties of trisodium EDDS have been assessed from its molecular formula. According to an Expert statement, trisodium EDDS does not contain any chemically instable or high energetic groups that might lead to an explosion. Therefore, it can be concluded that trisodium EDDS is not explosive (van Helvoirt, 1993f).
In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the study (required in section 7.11) does not need to be conducted as there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule.
Justification for classification or non-classification
As trisodium EDDS does not contain any chemically instable or high energetic groups that might lead to an explosion, it would not be classified as an explosive substance according to EU CLP or DSD regulations.
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).
