Key result
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
Burning time:
> 2 min
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

The test item did not ignite at room temperature using a flame as ignition source, being applied for 2 minutes.

No main test was performed.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item could not be ignited by a flame for 2 minutes.
Executive summary:

In the current study the flammability of the test item was assessed according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.10. The study was not GLP.

The test item could not be ignited by applying a flame for 2 minutes.

Therefore, the test item does not have to be classified as flammable according to the CLP Regulation EC 1272/2008 Annex 1: 2.7.

Description of key information

The test item could not be ignited by a flame for 2 minutes. The test item is hence not considered to be flammable.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
non flammable

Additional information

One study is available assessing the flammability of the test item. The test was performed according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.10. The study was not GLP. The test item could not be ignited applying a flame for 2 minutes.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The test item did not ignite for at least 2 minutes. According to the criteria set out in the CLP Regulation EC 1272/2008 Annex 1: 2.7, and more specifically in Table 2.7.1, the test item does not have to be classified as flammable.
