Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The test item 1, 3, 5-TRICHLORO-2 , 6 -DINITROBENZENE (DNTCB) should be considered as not highly flammable (for EU regulations); non-flammable solid (for UN regulations).
Executive summary:
Title of Study: Determination of the flammability of 1, 3, 5-TRICHLORO-2 , 6 -DINITROBENZENE (DNTCB) following EU-Method A.10 and UN N.1

Findings and Results: First, a safety test was performed. A small amount of the test item was heated on a magnesia groove with a gas burner in order to derive safety precautions. The test item melted and showed no signs of ignition and left no residue on the magnesia groove.

In the preliminary screening test following the EU and the UN method, the test item was heated with the flame of a teclu burner. The test item melted to a light brown liquid and showed no signs of ignition.

Therefore, the test item 1, 3, 5-TRICHLORO-2 , 6 -DINITROBENZENE (DNTCB) should be considered as

- not highly flammable (for EU regulations)

- non-flammable solid (for UN regulations)
