Test procedure:
other: safety test
Remarks on result:
other: the test item showed not signs of ignition
Key result
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
Remarks:
2 minutes heating with a teclu burner

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

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
stearone is not highly flammable
stearone is a non-flammable solid
Executive summary:

In the preliminary screening test following the EU method, the test item was heated with the flame of a teclu burner. The test item melted and evaporated. No ignition occurred within two minutes.

Therefore, the test itemStearoneshould be considered as

 

                                                        not highly flammable (for EU regulations)

                                                        non-flammable solid (for UN regulations)
