Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammability, other
- Remarks:
- contact with water
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- Start date of the experimental work: 1 February 2018 and completion date of the experimental work: 8 May 2018
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.12 (Flammability (Contact with Water))
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- For the initial tests, no gas generation or spontaneous ignitions were observed. For the final test the generation of a flammable gas was less than 1 Litre/Kg of the substance per hour. Under the EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A12, the substance is therefore determined to be Non-Hazardous.
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Remarks:
- flammability solids

- Moisture (wt %):
- 0.4
- Remarks on result:
- other: the sample melted then ignited with a localised, medium size, orange flame.
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:

- Key result
- Test procedure:
- ignition time on contact with air
- Remarks on result:
- no ignition on contact with air (not further specified)
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The test item not pyrophoric.
- Executive summary:
A small quantity of the sample (1-2 ml) was dropped from a height of approximately 1 metre onto a non-combustible surface. It was observed if the sample ignited on dropping or within 5 minutes of settling. The test was performed six times. No ignition were observed during the six tests. The sample is therefore not pyrophoric

Description of key information
- The test item is not highly flammable ( Annex Part A test A10.)
- For the initial tests, no gas generation or spontaneous ignitions were observed. For the final test the generation of a flammable gas was less than 1 Litre/Kg of the substance per hour. Under the EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A12, the substance is therefore determined to be Non-Hazardous.
- The test item not pyrophoric. (EU Method A.13 (Pyrophoric Properties of Solids and Liquids))
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- not classified

Justification for classification or non-classification
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
