Specific details on test material used for the study:

SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source (i.e. manufacturer or supplier) and lot/batch number of test material: 4G08
- Purity, including information on contaminants, isomers, etc.: approx 95% no further information

STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: at room temperature at about 20 °C in dry conditions
- Stability and homogeneity of the test material in the vehicle/solvent under test conditions (e.g. in the exposure medium) and during storage: not stated but assumed stable
- Stability in the medium, i.e. sensitivity of the test material to hydrolysis and/or photolysis: not stated but assumed stable
- Solubility and stability of the test material in the solvent/vehicle and the exposure medium: no solvent/ vehicle used
- Reactivity of the test material with the incubation material used (e.g. plastic ware): no reactivity assumed

TREATMENT OF TEST MATERIAL PRIOR TO TESTING
no treatment

FORM AS APPLIED IN THE TEST (if different from that of starting material)
same as received

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

Key value for chemical safety assessment
