Results and discussion

Flammable solids
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
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

Any other information on results incl. tables

Result Preliminary test:

Brief burning followed by rapid extinction. Therefore, the preliminary screening test is negative.

Because of the result of the preliminary test the test substance is not considered a flammable solid of division 4.1.
