- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- This test method is designed to measure the potential for a solid substance to increase the burning rate or burning intensity of a combustible substance when the two are thoroughly mixed. The test sample is mixed in a 4:1 and a 1:1 ratio, by mass, with fibrous cellulose, the mixture ignited with a wire coil and the speed and mode of decomposition observed and compared with that for the reference mixtures (Potassium Bromate / Cellulose).

- Conclusions:
- The substance does not meet the criteria for an oxidising substance according to the criteria laid out in the method Test O.1, UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, 5th Ed., 2009.
- Executive summary:
The test substance had a mean burning time of 359s in a 4:1 mixture with cellulose. A 1:1 mixture had a mean burning time of 313s. The mean burning time of a 3:7 reference mixture of potassium bromate and cellulose was 73s. The substance does not meet the criteria for an oxidising substance according to the criteria laid out in the method Test O.1, UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, 5th Ed., 2009.

Additional information
The reference substance required by EU test method A.17 is different to that required by the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, Part III, O.1.
The substance does not meet the criteria for an oxidising substance under the conditions of either test. The combination of both results is thus considered to be adequate for the purposes of classification and labelling, and risk assessment.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available experimental test data are considered reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, Annex I, section 2.14. The substance is not considered to be oxidising according to the criteria given in the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, Part III, 34.4.1. As a result the substance is not considered to be classified as oxidising under Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
