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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 13 March 2017 - 18 July 2017
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Key result
- Test procedure:
- burning time over 250 mm for metal powders or metal alloys
- 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 test substance slowly smoldered, with a sulfurous burning smell and a glowing red ~4-mm spot, but did not propagate burning along 200 mm of the powder strip within a four-minute test period. The test substance was therefore not considered highly flammable. The test material was determined to not be highly flammable.
- Executive summary:
The flammability of the test substance was determined using EU Guideline Method A.10. The test substance slowly smoldered, with a sulfurous burning smell and a glowing red ~4-mm spot, but did not propagate burning along 200 mm of the powder strip within a four-minute test period. The test substance was therefore not considered highly flammable. The test material was determined to not be highly flammable.
Reference

The test substance was therefore not considered highly flammable. The test material was determined to not be highly flammable.
Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- not classified
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
As the test material failed to propogate the entire powder strip during the test, and as the tets material is known not to cause a hazard when exposed to air or water, the test material is therefore not classified in accordance with Regulation EC 1272/2008.
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.
