JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING (EXPERT STATEMENT)

The data waiving was based on the expert statement in the study report.

From the expert statement:

The molecular structure of the test substance does not contain chemical groups which are associated with explosive properties.
Moreover the test substance is a solution which contains for 65% of water and does not contain explosive properties.
In conclusion, TEAH 35% in water has no explosive properties.

Description of key information

The substance has no explosive properties because it lacks structural alerts and because it exists in a solution containing 65% of water.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

Key value for tetraethylammonium hydroxide: not explosive

Key value for the registered substance: not explosive

Justification for classification or non-classification

Both tetraethylammonium hydroxide and the registered substance do not have to be classified for the hazard 'explosives' according to CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008:
