Specific details on test material used for the study:

Identification: FAT 40045/Z

Key result

Test procedure:

other: Preliminary study to check if the substacne is flammable

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

Safety Pre-Test

A small amount of the test item was heated on a magnesia groove with a gas burner. Glowing was observed. The test item showed no signs of ignition.

Preliminary screening test

The test item was heated with the flame of a teclu burner. Glowing was observed during heating. No ignition occurred within two minutes.

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

No ignition was observed throughout the course of the test. Hence, the test item FAT 40045/Z should be considered as not highly flammable

Executive summary:

FAT 40045/Z was tested for flammability potential as per guideline EU Method A.10. In a safety pre-test, small amount of the test item was heated on a magnesia groove with a gas burner. Glowing was observed but the test item did not show any signs of ignition.

Consequently, a screening test was performed. The test item prepared as a 250 mm long pile was heated with the flame of a teclu burner. Glowing was observed during heating. No ignition occurred within two minutes. Hence, the test item FAT 40045/Z TE should be considered as not highly flammable.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:

not classified

Justification for classification or non-classification

FAT 40045/Z was found o be not flammable in the study conducted as per EU Method A.10. Hence, it does not warrant classification as per the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP).
