Description of key information
This product is not explosive. Aluminim sulphate is from the group of Inorganic salt and do not contain an organic materials and there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule. Inorganic salts are generally non explosive as well.
Aluminim sulphate may burn, but will not ignite. (United Nations Environment Programme, IRTPC data profile on aluminium sulphate, March 1992: "non explosive").
Key value for chemical safety assessment

- non explosive
Additional information
Explosive properties
Aluminim sulphate belongs to the Following Reactive Group:Salts,Acidic Inorganic/Organic.There are 271 chemical datasheets assigned to this reactive group.
Reactive groups are categories of chemicals that typically react in similar ways because they are similar in their chemical structure. Each substance with a chemical datasheet has been assigned to one or more reactive groups, and CAMEO Chemicals uses the reactive group assignments to make its reactivity predictions.
Aluminim sulphate is from the group of Inorganic salt and do not contain an organic materials and there are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule. Inorganic salts are generally non explosive as well.
Aluminim sulphate may burn, but will not ignite and explode.(United Nations Environment Programme, IRTPC data profile on aluminium sulphate, March 1992: "non explosive").
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the hazard assessment of aluminium sulphate in section 2.1 and 2.2 in IUCLID 5.2, available data for the substance and according to the criteria described in Directive 67/548/EEC and in the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP Regulation):

It is concluded that none of the above phrase has not to be assigned to aluminium sulphate and does not meet the criteria to be classified for explosiveness.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
