Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 1 August 2016
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- test procedure in accordance with generally accepted scientific standards and described in sufficient detail
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
- Version / remarks:
- Test guideline not explicitly mentioned in the study report. The description of the test method in the report complies with the requirements of Test Method A.10 in the EU test method regulation 440/2008
- Deviations:
- not specified
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Test procedure:
- burning rate test: preliminary screening test
- Remarks:
- over 200 mm
- Burning time:
- ca. 10 s
- Remarks on result:
- other:
- Remarks:
- The sample discoloured to black and ignited producing a medium size orange flame which propagated along the sample train
- Key result
- Test procedure:
- burning rate test with wetted zone
- Burning time:
- >= 8 - <= 12 s
- Remarks on result:
- flame passes the wetted zone
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1 (flammable solids) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The sample propagated combustion in less than 45 seconds, passing the wetted zone. As such, according to table 2.7.1 of Annex I of CLP, the substance should be classified as a Category 1 flammable solid. The substance is also classified as highly flammable, Division 4.1, and assigned to Packing Group II for transport purposes.
- Executive summary:
The burning rate of the sample was measured according to a method similar to that described in Method A.10 of the European Test Method Regulation (EC) 440/2008. The results of the main test showed that the sample burned over 100 mm, passing the wetted zone and the orange flame produced propagated along the sample train. This was observed in all six repetitions of the main test. Therefore, the substance fulfils the criteria for classification as a Category 1 flammable solid according to CLP/GHS. Additionally, it is classified as highly flammable, Division 4.1 and assigned Packing Group II for transport purposes.
