Executive summary:

The determination of the flammability of BIS TRIFLUOROMETHANESULFONIMIDE was performed using a powder train about 250 mm long, by 20 mm wide, by 10 mm high in accordance with EEC Directive 92/69 Appendix V part A 10 except that the ignition source was a hot platinum wire (>=1000° C) as proposed in NF T 20-042 (Sept. 85).

BIS TRIFLUOROMETHANESULFONIMIDE is not "highly flammable" under the conditions of the test, and not classified.
