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
- Justification for type of information:
- JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
In accordance with REACh Annex VII / column 2, the study does not need to be conducted if there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule.
Based on criteria from:
- Regulation (EC) N°1272/2008 (CLP) Annex I, §2.1.4.,
- UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods - Manual of Tests and Criteria (7th revised edition, 2019), Appendix 6 Screening procedures §A6.3)
- ECHA endpoint specific guidance on Information Requirements (R.7a, v6.0, July 2017, §R.7.1.11),
NO REACTIVE GROUP was identified in the chemical structure.
Then explosive properties are not anticipated, and the acceptance procedure for Class 1 explosives shall not apply, no further testing is required. - Endpoint:
- explosive properties of explosives
- Type of information:
- read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Study period:
- 1995-06-30 to 1995-07-26
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Remarks:
- The study was conducted according to an internationally recognised method, and under GLP. No deviation affected the quality of the study. Purity is specified in the report, and isomers composition is available from the notifier.
- Justification for type of information:
- Based on structural similarity (the target substance is one of the constituents of the source substance, together with isomers), both substances are not expected to have significantly different explosive potential. Therefore the result of the study will be considered for the target substance.
Further information is included in IUCLID Section 13. - Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.14 (Explosive properties)
- Version / remarks:
- Commission Directive 92/69/EEC
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Remarks:
- Inspected on 31 January 1994 / Signed on 16 March 1994
- Parameter:
- sensitiveness to impact: impact energy (J)
- Value:
- 40
- Remarks on result:
- not sensitive to impact using an impact energy of 40 J
- Parameter:
- thermal sensitivity - Koenen test: diameter of the orifice plate
- Value:
- 6
- Remarks on result:
- not thermal sensitive if heated under defined confinement
- Parameter:
- thermal sensitivity - Koenen test: diameter of the orifice plate
- Value:
- 2
- Remarks on result:
- not thermal sensitive if heated under defined confinement
- Interpretation of results:
- study cannot be used for classification
- Conclusions:
- The test substance is not sensitive to heating and shock.
The test is inconclusive according to Regulation (EC) N°1272/2008 (CLP) criteria. - Executive summary:
The explosive properties of the substance were tested according to EU A14 guideline, for sensivity towards heating and shock, under GLP.
The BAM fall hammer was used with a 10 kg mass dropped from 0.4 m, and the test was repeated six times. The Koenen test was performed with holes of diameter 6 mm and 2 mm, and repeated three times each.
All results were negative.

Description of key information
Testing according to CLP criteria waived, based on chemical structure.
Not explosive with regard to heat or shock sensitivity (experimental, DSD criteria), from analogue.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
According to the screening procedure described in Regulation (EC) N°1272/2008 (CLP), the structure of the substance does not contain any chemical group associated with explosive properties.
Therefore, no further testing is required.
Moreover, a fully reliable, GLP, supporting experimental study for the determination of explosive properties, with regard to sensitivity towards heat and shock (friction not required for liquids), is available on an similar compound. However, this test, conducted according to Directive 67/548/EEC (DSD) classification criteria, cannot be extrapolated to CLP criteria, as the testing strategy and study design differ significantly. Nevertheless the Koenen tube test is common, and the negative result confirms that the substance is not sensitive to heat.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance is NOT classified as explosive according to CLP criteria, based on the structural formula, that fulfills the screening procedure.
