Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
reference to same study
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
other: Directive VDI 2263, part 1
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Determination of the combustion index ( "Brennzahl") and the burning rate
Test procedure:
other: burning index according to VDI 2263, part 1
Remarks on result:
other: burning index 5
Remarks:
burning with flame or spark generation
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
Burning time:
115 s
Remarks on result:
other: burning time for a distance of 100 mm

the test item showed burning with flame when an ignition source was applied. A propagation of the combustion was observed and assessed as combustion index 5.

Thus, the burning rate had to be determined: 

 

Burning time for 100 mm: 151 s, corresponding to 0.87 mm/s

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
With a burning time for 100 mm of 115 s (burning rate: 0.87 mm/s), the test item has not to be classified as flammable solid according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.

Results and discussion

Melting / freezing point
Melting / freezing pt.:
323 °C
Decomposition:
yes
Decomp. temp.:
325 °C

Any other information on results incl. tables

The DTA shows an endothermal reaction with an onset at 322.84 °C (rounded value of 323 °C taken as melting point) and a peak at 324.21 °C. Decomposition starts from the melting substance by a two-stage process. The (exothermal) decomposition reaction shows an onset at 325.08 °C (rounded value of 325 °C taken as decomposition temperature) and a peak at 330.57 °C, the decomposition energy is -610 J/k (mean from 2 measurements).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Decomposition starts from the melting substance, with a melting point of 323 °C and a decompisition temperature of 325 °C.
