Reference
Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
19 March 2001
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Specific details on test material used for the study:
Identity: FAT 40800/A
Batch number: WP 2/01
Aggregate state at room temperature: Solid / powder
Color: Dark orange
Storage conditions: At room temperature at about 20 °C, away form direct sunlight
Expiration Date: February 14, 2007
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
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test substance is not "highly flammable".
Executive summary:

In a GLP-compliant flammability study, performed according to EU method A.10, the flammability of the test substance was determined. The flame of a gas burner was used as a ignition source. The test substance could not be ignited with a flame (contact time of about 2 minutes). In contact with the ignition source it glowed slightly and white smoke was observed. A corbonized porous residue remained. Therefore, no main test was performed. In conclusion, the test substance is not highly flammable.

Description of key information

The test substance is not "highly flammable".

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

In a GLP-compliant flammability study, performed according to EU method A.10, the flammability of the test substance was determined. The flame of a gas burner was used as a ignition source. The test substance could not be ignited with a flame (contact time of about 2 minutes). In contact with the ignition source it glowed slightly and white smoke was observed. A corbonized porous residue remained. Therefore, no main test was performed. In conclusion, the test substance is not highly flammable.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The test substance is considered to be not highly flammable, hence it does not warrant classification according to the EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
