guideline study

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))

Deviations:

no

GLP compliance:

no

Specific details on test material used for the study:

Identified as: Product FAT 36038/J
Lot. 1404301

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

Findings:

Safety Pre-Test:

A small amount of the test item was heated on a magnesia groove with a gas burner. Glowing was observed. The test item showed no signs of ignition.

Preliminary screening test:

The test item was heated with the flame of a teclu burner. Glowing was observed during heating. No ignition occurred within two minutes.

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

FAT 36038/J should be considered as not highly flammable.

Executive summary:

This study was performed in order to determine the flammability of test item FAT 36038/J. The guideline followed was EU Method A.10. During the preliminary screening test, the substance does not ignite and propagate combustion on burning with flame of a teclu burner along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period. Hence, the test item FAT 36038/J should be considered as not highly flammable.

Description of key information

This study was performed in order to determine the flammability of test item FAT 36038/J. The guideline followed was EU Method A.10. During the preliminary screening test, thesubstance does not ignite and propagate combustion on burning with flame of a teclu burner along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period. Hence, the test item FAT 36038/J should be considered as not highly flammable.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:

non flammable

Justification for classification or non-classification

FAT 36038/J was considered as not highly flammable based on the results of a flammability study, hence it does not warrant classification in accordance to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
