Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- November 1-16, 2016
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source and lot/batch No.of test material: LMD, 6912911B
- Expiration date of the lot/batch: September 11, 2018
STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: < 15 degrees C - Key result
- Test procedure:
- burning rate test over 100 mm length
- 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:
- not classified based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- LMD is not flammable.
- Executive summary:
LMD was tested for flammability in an OECD Guideline 109 test. Despite being exposed to a flame for 2 minutes, the substance did not combust. LMD is therefore not flammable.
- Endpoint:
- substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because the experience in production or handling shows that the substance does not react with water, e.g. the substance is manufactured with water or washed with water
- Endpoint:
- pyrophoric solids
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days) and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied
- Endpoint:
- self-heating substances / mixtures
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is completely molten at 160°C

After a two minute exposure to a flame only 10 mm of the powder train smoldered.
Description of key information
LMD was tested for flammability in an OECD Guideline 109 test. Despite being exposed to a flame for 2 minutes, the substance did not combust. LMD is therefore not flammable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- not classified
Additional information
no pyrophoricity
no flammability on contact with water
no self-heating
Additional information
Based on flammability result the test substance is a non flammable solid.
Based on experience in handling and use and the chemical structure pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not to be expected.
The substance is completely molten at 40.3°C, therefore it does not need to be considered for classification as self-heating.
Justification for classification or non-classification
LMD was tested for flammability in an OECD Guideline 109 test. Despite being exposed to a flame for 2 minutes, the substance did not combust. LMD is therefore not flammable.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
