Preliminary test
Three test mixtures with the test item and cellulose 2:1 did not burn down completely. The mixtures burned for 4 s, 20 s and 18 s. Afterwards the flames extinguished.
Three test mixtures with barium nitrate and cellulose 2:1 burned down completely in 59 s, 47 s and 56 s.
Due to the results of the preliminary test the main test had to be performed.
Main test
Four tests were performed for the reference mixture (barium nitrate and cellulose) with 50, 55, 60 and 70 wt. % of oxidizer (barium nitrate). The highest burning rate of 1.68 mm/s was found for the mixture with 60 wt. % of oxidizer.
Mixtures of the test item with cellulose were prepared in different percentages. The results of the test of the different mixtures are reported in the table below.

The maximum burning rate of the mixtures of the test item with cellulose was lower than the maximum burning rate of the reference mixture. Five more tests were performed with the three mixtures with the highest burning rates to verify these values. Results are reported in the table below (including the values obtained by the previous test).

The maximum burning rate of the mixtures of the test item and cellulose (1.05 mm/s) was lower than the maximum burning rate of the reference mixture of cellulose and barium nitrate (1.68 mm/s).
The test item, pure substance, has no oxidizing properties in the sense of the EU Method A. 17.
Preliminary test
Three test mixtures with the test item and cellulose 2:1 did not burn down completely. The mixtures burned for 10 s, 11 s and 11 s before the burning extinguished. The cone was still mostly intact. The reaction was not violent.
Three test mixtures with barium nitrate and cellulose 2:1 burned down completely in 59 s, 55 s and 56 s.

Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available data on oxidising properties of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification: Based on burning rate tests with cellulose, the substance has no oxidising properties.
