Endpoint:

flammable solids

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

2014

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:

no

Test procedure:

other: Preliminary study to check if the substance is flammable

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 20077/D should be considered as not highly flammable.

Executive summary:

FAT 20077/D was evaluated for flammability potential in a study conducted according to EU Method A.10. During the preliminary study, the test substance did not ignite and propagate combustion by burning with flame along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period. Hence, the test substance FAT 20077/D should be considered as not highly flammable.

Description of key information

FAT 20077/D was evaluated for flammability potential in a study conducted according to EU Method A.10. During the preliminary study, the test substance did not ignite and propagate combustion by burning with flame along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period. Hence, the test substance FAT 20077/D TE should be considered as not highly flammable.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:

non flammable

Justification for classification or non-classification

FAT 20077/D TE was considered to be not highly flammable based on the results of a flammability study conducted according to EU Method A.10. Hence it does not warrant classification for flammability according to the criteria of Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
