Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
oxidising solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.17 (Oxidising Properties (Solids))
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Contact with:
powdered cellulose
Sample tested:
other: not specified (migrated information)
Parameter:
other: not specified (migrated information)
Remarks on result:
other: result not specified (migrated information)
Remarks:

Sample tested:

Parameter:
other: not specified (migrated information)
Remarks on result:
other: result not specified (migrated information)
Remarks:
As none of the test mixtures burned, a burning rate could not be measured.

In all ratios of test substance to cellulose (2:1, 1:1, 1:2) the test pile did not burn. The tip of the cone charred, but the mixture remained almost entirely unburned.

Interpretation of results:
other: no oxidising properties
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
MPP was found to be non-oxidising.

Description of key information

MPP was found to be non-oxidising.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:
no

Additional information

As none of the test mixtures burned, a burning rate could not be measured. In all ratios of test substance to cellulose (2:1, 1:1, 1:2) the test pile did not burn. The tip of the cone charred, but the mixture remained almost entirely unburned.

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to 2.14.5.1 of the Guidance on the Application of the CLP Criteria (v4.0), EU test method A.17 cannot be used to assign hazard categories under the CLP classification criteria as the method is somewhat different to the UN test O.1 on which CLP classification is based. However, EU test method A.17 is designed to determine whether or not a substance has oxidising properties and as none of the test mixtures were found to burn it can be concluded that burning rates would not be established in the UN test O.1, which uses the same principle for testing, and therefore MPP can be considered not to possess oxidising properties.
