Preliminary test:

The test item was tested without pre-treatment. The pile burned for 6 minutes and 20 seconds, then it extinguished before the whole distance of 200 mm was completed.

The performance of the main test was not necessary.

Interpretation of results:
non flammable
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The test item is not a highly flammable solid in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A. 10.
Executive summary:

The purpose of this study was the determination of the flammability (solids) of the test item according to the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Part A: Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties.
