Reference
Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
UN Manual of Tests and Criteria: Test N.1 (Test method for readily combustible solids)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Test procedure:
burning rate test over 100 mm length
Burning time:
< 1 s
Remarks on result:
flame passes the wetted zone

Preliminary screening test: The pile propagated combustion over 200 mm in less than 1 second, with a very light blue, orange tipped flame that left light grey/black charred remains.

Main test: The pile propagated combustion over 100 mm in less than 1 second, with a very light blue, orange tipped flame that left light grey/black charred remains. the wetted zone failed to stop the flames propagation.

Interpretation of results:
Category 1 (flammable solids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Based on the results of the study the test item is considered to be a flammable solid.

Description of key information

A flammable solids test conducted in accordance with UN N.1 Guidance is available on the substance indicating it is a flammable solid.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
flammable

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

In the main flammability test the burning time of the substance over 100 mm was < 45 seconds and the flame passed the wetted zone. Accordingly classification as a category 1 flammable solid is appropriate for this substance in accordance with UN GHS and the CLP Regulation (EC No. 1272/2008, as amended).
