Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The test material has been determined to be not highly flammable as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
Executive summary:

The flammability (solids) was determined using Method A10 specified in Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).

The test material has been determined to be not highly flammable.

Description of key information

A preliminary screening test has been conducted and Gasir 1 is not classified as a readily flammible solid as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

Tremain (2005) is a GLP-compliant study following EU method A.10 and can be used as a key study for this endpoint.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The flammability (solids) was determined using Method A.10 specified in Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).

Gasir 1 has been determined to be not readily flammable.
