Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: GLP compliant, guideline study, available as unpublished report, acceptable without restrictions
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
other: EC No 1272/2008 using Method N.1 of the United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Danergous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, fifth revised edition 2009
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
due to the limited amount of test item, it was not possible to completely fill the mould to a length of 250 mm. However this issue was concluded not to have impacted upon the validity of the test.
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Preliminary screening test: The 250 x 20 x 10 mm mould was loosely filled with test item. A non-combustible, non-porous board was placed onto the mould which was then inverted. The mould was removed and an air-rich Bunsen burner flame applied to one end of the pile for two minutes.
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
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:
non flammable
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Hexachloroiridic acid, Hydrogen hexachloroiridate (IV) is not classified as a readily combustible solid as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
Executive summary:

The result is from a GLP compliant, guideline study considered to be suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint (Harlan 2011).

Hexahcloroiridic acid, Hydrogen hexachloroiridate (IV) is not classified as a readily combustible solid as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
