Results and discussion

Flammable solids
Key result
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
Burning time:
> 4 min
Remarks on result:
other: The flame died when the burner was taken away. The combustion with flame of the test item did not propagate within the four minutes test period.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
As no ignition with propagating flame occurred throughout the test, the test item 5-Aminotetrazol Potassium is considered as not highly flammable. No observations were made which might cause doubts concerning the validity of the study outcome.
Executive summary:

When heated with the flame of propane burner, the test item started to crackle and sparkle with violet flame. Melting and the formation of smoke were observed. The flame died when the burner was taken away. The combustion with flame of the test item did not propagate within the four minutes test period. Therefore, the test item 5-Aminotetrazol Potassium is considered as not highly flammable.
