Any other information on results incl. tables

Result

1. Preliminary test:

Burning time ( 200 mm test distance):       Brief burning followed by rapid extinction.

Therefore, the preliminary screening test is negative.

Because of the result of the preliminary test the test substance is not considered a flammable solid of division 4.1.
