Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Celitement is non flammable.
Executive summary:

A preliminary screening test was performed. For the preliminary screening test, the substance was formed into a powder train on a non-combustible, non-porous and low-heat base plate. A hot flame from a gas burner was used for 5 minutes to ignite the substance.

During the preliminary screening test, the substance did not ignite burn or smoulder. Due to this preliminary test result, the substance is non-flammable and a main test was not conducted.
