Results
Preliminary Test
The test item did not ignite at room temperature using a flame as ignition source being applied for at least 2 minutes. The test item melted.

Main Test
The test item could not be ignited by a flame in the preliminary test. Thus, the performance of the main test was not necessary.

Conclusion
The test item could not be ignited applying a flame as ignition source for at least 2 minutes.

The test item is classified as follows:
UN Transport Regulation: The product has not to be classified as 'readily combustible solid' in class 4.1 according to the UN Transport Regulation.

GHS (CLP Regulation EC 1272/2008: Annex 1: 2.7): The product has not to be classified asflammable solidaccording to GHS / CLP Regulation EC 1272/2008 Annex 1: 2.7.
