vf Ana 1 ys is In freezer in the dark Stable Not indicated The sponsor is responsible for the completeness and GLP Compliance of all test substance data. PURPOSE The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether the reaction of the test substance with water or damp air leads to the development
of dangerous amounts of gas or gases which may be highly flammable. Page 5

# 1,1,3,3-TETRAMETHYLBUTYL PEROXYP!VALATE GUIDELINES The study procedures described in this report are based on the fol1owing guideline: European Economic Community (EEC), EEC directive 92/69 EEC, Part A, Methods for the determination
of physico-chemical properties,

A-12 'Flammability (contact with water), EEC Publication No. L383, December 1992. ARCHIVING NOTOX B.V. will archive the following data for at least 10 years: protocol, report and test substance reference sample. STATEMENT From the structural formula of 1,1,3,3-TETRAMETHYLBUTYL

PEROXYPIVALATE

it can be concluded that the test substance is incapable of developing

a dangerous amount of (flammable) gas in contact with air, damp air or water. Moreover, during the production process the. test substance
is washed two times with water.
