- 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
- Remarks:
- The substance did not ignite when in contact with a bunsen flame for a period of 2 minutes.
- Test procedure:
- ignition time on contact with air
- Remarks:
- Ignition on contact with air refers to either Pyrophoric solids or Pyrophoric liquids depending on physical state (migrated information).
- Remarks on result:
- no ignition on contact with air (not further specified)
- Remarks:
- corresponding to 'no' in migrated source record. | Remarks: Results based on experience. | Additional remarks: The substance is manufactured, stored, used and handled in ambient temperature and pressure (air). The substance does not ignite when in contact with air.
- Result:
- other:
- Remarks:
- No self-heating or self-reactive properties
- Remarks on result:
- not measured/tested
- Remarks:
- Based on an assessment of the substance's properties it is concluded not to have self-heating or self-reactive properties.
- Remarks on result:
- no reaction with water observed
- Remarks:
- corresponding to 'no' in migrated source record.| Remarks:Results based on experience. | Additional remarks: The substance is used as a water purification material (ion exchange mechanism) and does not ignite when in contact with water (deionised or non-deionised).
- Interpretation of results:
- non flammable
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- The substance is non-flammable since it failed to ignite when in contact with a bunsen flame for 2 minutes in a flammability study preliminary screening test performed in accordance with the Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008, Part A, Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties, Method A.10 Flammability. It is manufactured, stored, used and handled in ambient temperature and pressure (air) and does not ignite in these conditions. The substance is used as a water purification material (non-deionised water) and has shown no indications of ignition or reaction by releasing flammable gases when in contact with the medium. Based on an assessment of the substance's properties it is also concluded not to have self-heating or self-reactive properties. The substance can therefore be regarded as non-flammable.
- Executive summary:
The substance has been determined to be non flammable, based on a test procedure designed to be compatible with Method A.10 Flammability (Solids) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008, and experience in manufacture and use of the substance.

- non flammable
Additional information
The substance is non-flammable since it failed to ignite when in contact with a bunsen flame for 2 minutes in a flammability study preliminary screening test performed in accordance with the Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008, Part A, Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties, Method A.10 Flammability. It is manufactured, stored, used and handled in ambient temperature and pressure (air) and does not ignite in these conditions. The substance is used as a water purification material (non-deionised water) and has shown no indications of ignition or reaction by releasing flammable gases when in contact with the medium. Based on an assessment of the substance's properties it is also concluded not to have self-heating or self-reactive properties. The substance can therefore be regarded as non-flammable.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance is classified as non-flammable as it failed to ignite in a flammability study preliminary screening test performed according to Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008, Part A, Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties, Method A.10 Flammability.
