Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The test substance is considered explosive when in at least one of the thermal sensitivity tests, the tube bursts into three or more fragments. The test substance is considered explosive if in at least one of the mechanical sensitivity tests the test substance shows a vigorous reaction that is equivalent to an explosion (e.g. crepitation, a report, bursting into flames). A test substance is considered to present a danger of explosion if a positive result is obtained in the thermal sensitivity test or in the mechanical sensitivity test.

Thermal sensitivity:

None of the tests resulted in an explosion or vigorous reaction. None of the tubes showed a deformation or had burst into fragments. The test substance is not explosive when exposed to thermal stress

Mechanical sensitivity by shock:

A 10kg mass was dropped from 0.4 meter height on the test substance. in non of the 6 tests the resulted in visual changes in tests substance consistency. No (traces of) vigorous reactions were observed. From this it was concluded that the test substance does not react under mechanical stress by shock. the test substance is not explosive when exposed to mechanical stress by shock

Interpretation of results:
non explosive
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The test substance was determined not explosive in a reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol, and in compliance with GLP.
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

Description of key information

not explosive

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule. Available data for silane substances indicates that this class of substances does not show explosive properties.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The available data on explosively of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification. There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule.
