Description of key information
Considering the structural environment of oxygen in the molecule, 2,3-Epoxypropanol (Glycid)contains oxygen chemically bonded only to carbon, and any chemical groups associated with oxidising properties and the oxygen balance of 2,3-Epoxypropanol (Glycid), it can be concluded that 2,3-Epoxypropanol (Glycid) is unlikely to be an oxidizer and will be incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials. Therefore, glycid does not need to be tested experimentally for oxidizing properties.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Oxidising properties:
- no
Additional information
Considering the structural environment of oxygen in the molecule, 2,3-Epoxypropanol (Glycid)contains oxygen chemically bonded only to carbon, and any chemical groups associated with oxidising properties and the oxygen balance of 2,3-Epoxypropanol (Glycid), it can be concluded that 2,3-Epoxypropanol (Glycid) is unlikely to be an oxidizer and will be incapable of reacting exothermically with combustible materials.
Therefore, glycid does not need to be tested experimentally for oxidizing properties.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance has no oxidising properties.The test material is not classified according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 or Directive 67/548/EEC.
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.
