Reference
Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
April 18, 2002
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
Version / remarks:
1985
GLP compliance:
no
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
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

The fusion of the specimen was observed in the area of contact with the pilot flame, removing this pilot flame after the prescribed 2 -minute no propagation of combustion was observed.
Further tests were not performed, according to the method.

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified according the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008)
Conclusions:
Not flammable
Executive summary:

Method

The test substance has been checked for its flammability according to the EU Method A.10.

Conclusion

Not flammable

Description of key information

Not flammable

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

The test substance has been checked for its flammability according to the EU Method A.10.

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to the CLP Regulation (EC n. 1272/2008) powdered, granular or pasty substances or mixtures (except powders of metals or metal alloys — see 2.7.2.2) shall be classified as readily combustible solids when the time of burning of one or more of the test runs, performed in accordance with the test method described in Part III, sub-section 33.2.1, of the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, is less than 45 seconds or the rate of burning is more than 2,2 mm/s.

The sample does not propagate the combustion, therefore further tests have not been performed, according to the method and the substance is NOT classified as flammable according to the CLP Regulation.
