Due to the fact that the mixture of the test item with cellulose burned slower compared to the reference mixture, or the flame extinguished before the pre-burning phase was finished, it was concluded that the test item has no oxidising properties.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The substance has been shown to have no oxidising properties therefore it is not classified.
