- burning rate test: preliminary screening test
- Remarks on result:
- other: no ignition and no propagation of combustion occurred
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The flammability of the substance was determined according to EC Regulation No 440/2008, Guideline A.10. The substance is not considered as highly flammable and no further testing is required.
Reference
In the screening test the gas flame was applied for 2 minutes to one end of the substance train, but no ignition and no propagation of combustion occurred. Only melting took place of that part of the substance that was exposed to the flame. This means that the substance is not considered a highly flammable and that no further testing is required.
Description of key information
The substance is not considered as highly flammable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
The flammability of the substance was determined according to EC Regulation No 440/2008, Guideline A.10. The substance is not considered as highly flammable and no further testing is required. The flashpoint of the substance is 171˚C.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the available information the substance does not need to be classified as flammable according to EC Regulation 1272/2008 (CLP)
