Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Reference
Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2015
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study without detailed documentation
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
UN Manual of Tests and Criteria: Test N.1 (Test method for readily combustible solids)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
no
Other quality assurance:
ISO/IEC 17025 (General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories)
Test procedure:
burning rate test with wetted zone
Remarks on result:
substance does not ignite and propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period

The test was performed as stipulated in UN test procedure ‘Recommendations on the Transport of

Dangerous Goods’ (UN-RTDG), ‘Manual of Tests and Criteria’ (Part III, sub-section 33.2.1.4.1, Test N.1

‘Test method for readily combustible solids’).

The substance was formed into a powder train about 250 mm long by 20 mm wide by 10 mm high on a

non-combustible, non-porous and low heat-conducting base plate. 30 – 40 mm beyond the 100 mm

timing zone, 1 mL of a wetting solution was added to the pile. A hot flame from a gas burner was

applied to one end of the powder train until the powder ignites or for a maximum of 2 minutes. A

preliminary screening test was performed to determine if propagation by burning with flame or

smoldering occurs without wetted zone. If propagation over 200 mm of the train occurs within a

specified time then a full test programme to determine the burning rate was carried out.

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
‘EGGE 2806-1' is classified as a not readily combustible solid when tested according to UN-RTDG Procedure N.1.
Executive summary:

In a test according to UN-RTDG Procedure 1, EGGE 2806 -1 burned for 1 second but the flame extinguished. Therefore, the substance is not readily combustible.

Description of key information

‘EGGE 2806-1' is classified as a not readily combustible solid when tested according to UN-RTDG Procedure N.1.
