Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

In contact with the flame of the gas burner the test substance glowed, emitted sparks and turned into a black residue. After removal of the ignition source, no propagation of combustion of the test substance was observed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: 'not highly flammable' by ignition
Conclusions:
In a GLP-compliant study performed in accordance with UN-MTC Section 33.2.1 (Test N.1) and EC A.10, the substance has been determined to be 'not highly flammable' by ignition.
