Results and discussion
Flammable solids
- Key result
- 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
- Remarks:
- After 35s sample starts to melt and decomposes (sample temperature 160ºC). After 90s sample is completely degraded and turns into a black material (sample temperature 385ºC). As substance does not ignite and propagate combustion along 200 mm of the powder train within the four minutes test period, then the substance is not considered highly flammable and no further testing is required.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The substance cannot be considered flammable as it decomposes at 160ºC
- Executive summary:
The substance cannot be considered flammable as it decomposes at 160ºC
