Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

Flammability (solids) = non flammable, EU Method A.10, Möller 2012c
Flammability (pryrophoric properties) = This endpoint has been waived.
Flammability (contact with water) = This endpoint has been waived.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
non flammable

Additional information

The flammability of the test material (burning characteristics) was assessed in accordance with EU Method A.10. Under the conditions of the test, the test material failed to ignite and so further tests were not performed. The test material is therefore not classified as highly flammable in relation to its burning characteristics. The study was performed in line with accepted standardised guidelines with a high standard of reporting. The study was assigned a reliability score of 1 according to the principles for assessing data quality set out in Klimisch (1997) and considered suitable for assessment as an accurate reflection of the test material.

In accordance with section 1.5 of REACH Annex XI, flammability studies (pyrophoric properties, contact with water) do not need to be performed as, based on chemical structure, pyrophoric properties, and water reactivity, are not to be expected. Handling of the substance indicates that this is the case.

The available data are considered complete and the conclusion, non-flammable, was taken forward for risk assessment.

Justification for classification or non-classification

In accordance with Regulation EC No. 1272/2008, the test material does not require classification for flammability as it produced a negative result in the flammability (solids) test, and negative results can be predicted in the flammability (pyrophoric properties) and flammability (contact with water) tests based on its chemical structure.
