Description of key information
Not oxidising, EU Method A.17, Tremain (2007).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Oxidising properties:
- no
Additional information
The oxidising properties of the test material were investigated in a study which was conducted under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guideline EU Method A.17.
During the test, reference mixtures were prepared by mixing barium nitrate and cellulose in various ratios (10 to 90 % by weight). Sample mixtures were also prepared by mixing test material and cellulose in various ratios (10 to 90 % by weight). The mixtures were formed into a pile on a non-porous, non-combustible, plate; one end of the pile was then ignited using an air-rich Bunsen burner flame and the time taken for the reaction zone to travel over a distance of 200 mm after propagating an initial distance of 30 mm was recorded.
Under the conditions of the study, the test material:cellulose mixtures failed to propagate combustion over the full 200 mm of the test. Therefore the test material was determined not to have oxidising properties.
Justification for classification or non-classification
In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in Annex I, Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, the substance does not require classification with respect to its oxidising properties.
In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in Annex VI, Directive 67/548/EEC (DSD), the substance does not require classification with respect to its oxidising properties.
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.
