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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Flammability
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammability
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 1983
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: EEc Directive 79/831, Annex V, Part A 3.10
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- the test substance is not considered flammable
- 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:
- 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

Ignition with a hot platium wire results in melting of the substance. The molten substance does not sustain a flame.
Further investigations were therefore not made
Description of key information
The study provided was conducted to recognised testing guidelines and with GLP certification.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
- Ignition with a hot platinum wire results in melting of the substance. The molten substance does not sustain a flame.
- Based on chemical structure and experience in handling and use of test substance the pyrophoric properties and the flammability in contact with water are not to be expected.
- non flammable upon ignition
- no pyrophoric properties
- does not liberate flammable gases on contact with water.
Justification for classification or non-classification
- Upon Ignition with a hot platium wire results in melting of the substance. The molten substance does not sustain a flame.
- Based on chemical structure and experience in handling and use of test substance the pyrophoric properties and the flammability in contact with water are not to be expected.
The theoretical assessments of pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are based on section R.7.1.10 of Guidance chapter R.7a of REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006.
It can be concluded that the test substance is not considered to be classified as flammable material
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
