Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: GLP-compliant, guideline study, available as unpublished report, acceptable without restrictions
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: EC No 1272/2008 Method N.1 of the United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Danergous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, fifth revised edition 2009
- Deviations:
- no
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Preliminary screening test: A 250 x 20 x 10 mm mould was loosely filled with test item and a non combustible, non-porous board placed onto mould which was then inverted. The mould was removed and an air-rich Bunsen burner flame was applied to one end of pile for five minutes.
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Interpretation of results:
- non flammable
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- Iridium is not classified as a flammable solid in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of 16 December 2008 on Classification, Labelling and Packaging of substances and Mixtures as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
- Executive summary:
This is a GLP compliant, guideline study considered suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint. Iridium is not classified as a flammable solid in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of 16 December 2008 on Classification, Labelling and Packaging of substances and mixtures as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
