Specific details on test material used for the study:

- Product: FAT 46014/I TE
- Lot: OC130702

Key result

Test procedure:

burning rate test: preliminary screening test

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

Findings

Safety Pre-Test

A small amount of the test item was heated on a magnesia groove with a gas burner. Glowing was observed. The test item showed no signs of ignition.

Preliminary screening test

The test item was heated with the flame of a teclu burner. Glowing was observed during heating. No ignition occurred within two minutes.

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Remarks:

Migrated information

Conclusions:

FAT 46014/I should be considered as not highly flammable.

Executive summary:

The flammability of FAT 46014/I was evaluated in a study conducted according to EU Method A.10. A preliminary screening test was performed to determine if, on ignition by a gas flame, propagation by burning with flame or smoldering occurs. If propagation over 200 mm of the train piled from test substance, occurs within a specified time, then a full test programme to determine the burning rate was to be carried out. However, no ignition occured within two minutes, hence, the test item was classified as not highly flammable and no determination of burning rate was necessary.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:

not classified

Justification for classification or non-classification

FAT 46014/I was found to be not flammable, hence it does not warrant classification according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
