Remarks on result:
other: The test item is not highly flammable according to the criteria in Council Regulation (EC) No 440/2008, test method A.10.

The test was performed as follows:

The test item was loosely filled into the metal form (mould). The mould was then dropped three

times from a height of 2 cm onto a solid surface. The lateral limitations were removed and the

excess substance was scraped off. The plate was placed on top of the mould, the apparatus

was inverted and the mould was removed.

The pile was placed crossways to the air stream in the fume cupboard. The air stream was not

changed during the performance of the test. Around the testing device a wind protection shield

was positioned. Then the attempt was made to ignite the pile at one end.

The flame for the ignition was a natural gas burner flame with a diameter of 5 mm.

The test was performed using a clean, cool plate.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item is not highly flammable according to the criteria in Council Regulation (EC) No 440/2008, test method A.10.
