Link to relevant study record(s)

Reference

Endpoint:

flammable solids

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

26 Apr 1993

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

guideline study

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))

GLP compliance:

yes

Key result

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:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The substance is not considered highly flammable.

Executive summary:

The flamability of the test item has been determined using a modified test with a non-combustible fibreboard base-plate in accordance with EU Method A.10 and in compliance with GLP. In the preliminary study, ignition resulted in melting of the test substance. The molten test substance did not sustain a flame. Therefore no definitive test was conducted and the test substance is not considered highly flammable.

Description of key information

Negative result in preliminary test, EEC A.10, Schürch 1993

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:

not classified

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the available information, the test substance is not classified as flammable solid, self heating substance, pyrophoric solid or substance which in contact with water emits flammable gases in accordance with EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation No. (EC) 1272/2008.
