Reference
Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
The study was conducted between 13 September 2000 and 7 December 2000.
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:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Specific details on test material used for the study:
Identity: ST463.
Appearance: magenta powder
Storage conditions: room temperature
Batch number: 6558
Expiry date: August 2001
Purity: 99.4%
Date received: 1 August 2000
Key result
Test procedure:
burning rate test over 100 mm length
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 substance charred, melted and sustained a flame for up to 60 seconds. Only local burning was observed, with no propagation along the test pile.

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The substance was not highly flammable.
Executive summary:

The flammability (solids) was determined using a test mould and an ignition source. The study was conducted to EEC Method A10.

The substance charred, melted and sustained a flame for up to 60 seconds. Only local burning was observed, with no propagation along the test pile.

The substance was not highly flammable.

Description of key information

The flammability (solids) was determined using a test mould and an ignition source. The study was conducted to EEC Method A10.

The substance charred, melted and sustained a flame for up to 60 seconds. Only local burning was observed, with no propagation along the test pile.

The substance was not highly flammable.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

The test material has been determined to be not highly flammable as it did not propagate combustion over the 200 mm of the preliminary screening test.

The substance therefore does not meet the CLP criteria for a flammable solid.
