Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: United Nations Recommendations on the Transportation of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests andCriteria for Substances of Class 4, Division 4.2.
Deviations:
not specified
GLP compliance:
yes
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions
Remarks:
Appearance before test: White crystalline solid (powder). Appearance after test: A hardened solid mass remained, with no change in size. The test substance should be classified as “not a self-heating substance of Class 4, Division 4.2”.

Appearance before test: White crystalline solid

Appearance after test: A hardened solid mass remained, with no change in size.

It was determined that the test substance should be classified as “not a self-heating substance of Class 4, Division 4.2”.

Conclusions:
It was determined that potassium pentaborate should be classified as “not a self-heating substance of Class 4, Division 4.2”.
Executive summary:

Auto flammability test was performed according to the guideline 'UN recommendations on transportation of dangerous goods, manual of tests and criteria for substance of class 4' No change appeared on test item. Thus, It was determined that test item should be classified as “not a self-heating substance of Class 4, Division 4.2”.
