Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
2013-01-10
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Determination has been run according to standardized method but without GLP compliance.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
The substance strip was only 150 mm long instead of 250 mm, because no more sample was available for this screening test. But this deviation had no influence on the final test result.
GLP compliance:
no
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
Interpretation of results:
non flammable
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The substance is not considered as highly flammable.
Executive summary:

The test substance locally ignited, but no (sufficient) propagation of combustion occurred. This means that it is not considered as highly flammable according to EC Guideline A.10.

Description of key information

A close analogue is not considered as highly flammable.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
non flammable

Additional information

The test substance locally ignited, but no (sufficient) propagation of combustion occurred. This means that it is not considered as highly flammable according to EC Guideline A.10.

Justification for classification or non-classification

In the screening test the gas flame was applied to one end of the substance train. Only melting and ignition took place of that part of the substance that was exposed to the gas flame. No propagation of combustion occurred and the flame extinguishes as soon as the gas flame is removed. This means that the substance is not considered as highly flammable and that no further testing is required.
