Description of key information

Additional information

Data for the physico-chemical properties of vanadium dioxide were generated in studies of the following endpoints:

(i) density,

(ii) granulometry by laser diffraction and dustiness testing,

(iii) water solubility testing according to OECD 105

(iv) transformation/dissolution testing and

(v) oxidising properties

 

The other endpoints (i.e. appearance, melting point and flammability) are based on handbook data and/or long time experiences in handling.

 

It is noted here that handbook data for physico-chemical properties are considered to be from a trusted source acc. to "ECHA, Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment – Chapter R.7a: Endpoint specific guidance" and therefore, these data were considered reliable.

 

The results of the studies are reported in the endpoint summary as well as in the accompanying IUCLID database. Data for several endpoints were waived due to intrinsic properties of vanadium dioxide and/or based on the criteria as laid down in regulation (EC) 1907/2008.
