Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
- substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
- Data waiving:
- study technically not feasible
- Justification for data waiving:
- other:
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- weight of evidence
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
- Justification for type of information:
- JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
[Specific explanation in addition to field 'Justification for data waiving'] - Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: no guideline available (Publication data)
- Test procedure:
- other: The peroxide substances cannot be tested because they are chemical compounds that are characterized by their strong oxidising properties. Thus, they cause the burning of a combustible substance by reaction with it. Thus, they are not flammable compounds.
- Remarks on result:
- not measured/tested
- Remarks:
- As these chemical compounds have strong oxidising properties, they cause the burning of a combustible substance by reaction with it. Thus they are not flammable compounds.
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The substance is not a flammable compound.
- Endpoint:
- pyrophoric solids
- Data waiving:
- study technically not feasible

Description of key information
The properties of the peroxides are essentially due to the two bonded oxygen atoms which forms the peroxy group. The peroxides are known to have oxidative properties and cause the burning of a combustible substance by reaction with it. The organic peroxides can be considered as flammable substances because they have in their own structure the carbon part considered as the fuel and the peroxy part considered as the oxidizer of the combustion. At the other hand, the inorganic peroxy compounds can't be flammable because they do not have the fuel part in their own structure. Thus, the study can be waived.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- not classified
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
The properties of the peroxides are essentially due to the two bonded oxygen atoms which forms the peroxy group. The peroxides are known to have oxidative properties and cause the burning of a combustible substance by reaction with it. The organic peroxides can be considered as flammable substances because they have in their own structure the carbon part considered as the fuel and the peroxy part considered as the oxidizer of the combustion. At the other hand, the inorganic peroxy compounds can't be flammable because they do not have the fuel part in their own structure. Thus, the peroxide disodium has no classification as flammability (data lacking).
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).
