Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
pyrophoric solids
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days) and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied
Endpoint:
substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the experience in production or handling shows that the substance does not react with water, e.g. the substance is manufactured with water or washed with water

Description of key information

 Data waiver: Not highly flammable upon ignition; no pyrophoric properties; does not liberate flammable gases on contact with water..

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
non flammable

Additional information

- Upon ignition the test item could not be ignited with a flame during the preliminary test. In contact with the ignition source, the test item melted, evolving sparks. A yellow melt remained.

- Based on chemical structure and experience in handling and use of substance the pyrophoric properties and the flammability in contact with water are not to be expected

The theoretical assessments of pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are based on section R.7.1.10 of Guidance chapter R.7a of REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006.

Thus it can be concluded that the test substance is not considered to be classified as flammable material

Justification for classification or non-classification

Data waiving – study not scientifically necessary. Substance is known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days). Based on chemical structure and experience in handling, substance does not react with water.
