Preliminary test # 1
The test item melted, producing a pasty yellowish liquid that ignited. The flame propagated on 6 cm in 4 minutes (and on 20 cm in 16 minutes and 40 seconds). Then, the liquid blackened forming a crust.
Preliminary test #2
Same observations as in test #1 but the flame propagated on 4 cm in 4 minutes (and on 20 cm in approximately 17 minutes).
Main test
As the test item did not propagate burning over a 20 cm length of the powder train in less than 4 minutes (but in approx. 16 minutes), a burning rate test as described in EU Method A.10 was not carried out.
Description of key information
The substance is non flammable in contact with water and not pyrophoric.The preliminary test according to method A 10 "Flammability (solids)" of Directive 92/69/EEC was performed and the substance was found to be not "highly flammable" according to the criteria of the directive.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
The preliminary test according to method A 10 "Flammability (solids)" of Directive 92/69/EEC was performed and the test substance was found to be not "highly flammable" according to the criteria of the directive. Based on the evaluation of the structural formula of the substance (absence of structural alerts) and experience with handling during testing it was concluded that the test substance is incapable of developing a dangerous amount of (flammable) gas when coming into contact with air, damp air or water and does not ignite spontaneously when coming into contact with air. The test substance is thus non flammable in contact with water and not pyrophoric.
No UN test is available. However, as the substance did not propagate burning of a 200 mm length of the powder train in less than 2 minutes, the UN test N.1 does not need to be carried out for compliance with the CLP Regulation. Also for compliance with the CLP Regulation, the preliminary screening test, which is similar as the EU Method A.10, is sufficient.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the results of the preliminary test according to method EC A.10 (and UN test N.1), as the substance is non flammable in contact with water and is not pyrophoric, the substance (a solid) does not need to be classified for flammability in accordance with the CLP Regulation.
