Specific details on test material used for the study:

Name: FAT 40406/A
Purity; 89.3 %

Contact with:

powdered cellulose

Sample tested:

test mixture (not specified)

Parameter:

maximum burning rate

Result:

0.034 mm/s

Sample tested:

reference mixture (not specified)

Parameter:

maximum burning rate

Result:

2.7 mm/s

In all the tested mixtures smouldering fire was observed. For the 50 % test substance: 50 % cellulose mixture only four of the six test propagated to the second reference mark with a maximum burning rate of 0.033 mm/s. For the 60:40 mixture only three of the six test propagated to the second reference mark with a maximum burning rate of 0.034 mm/s and for the 70:30 mixture only five of the six test propagated to the second reference mark with a maximum burning rate of 0.031 mm/s.

 

*Max. burning rate of the reference mixture

barium nitrate/cellulose 60:40 = 2.7 mm/s.

Conclusions:

FAT 40406/A had no oxidizing properties.

Executive summary:

In a GLP-compliant study performed according to EU method A.17, the oxidizing properties of the test substance were determined. Hot platinum wire (approximately 1000 °C) was used as an ignition source. In all the tested mixtures only smouldering fire was observed. The 50:50, 60:40, and 70:30 test substance:cellulose mixtures were tested. The maximum burning rate was determined was between 0.031 and 0.034 mm/s but not all the test propogated to the second reference mark; 4, 3, and 5 out of six tests for the 50:50, 60:40, and 70:30 mixtures, respectively. The maximum burning rate of the reference mixture barium nitrate/cellulose (60:40) was 2.7 mm/s. Based on the findings of the study, the test substance had no oxidizing properties.

Additional information

In a GLP-compliant study, performed according to EU method A.17, the oxidizing properties of the test substance were determined (Ciba-Geigy 1991). Hot platinum wire (approximately 1000 °C) was used as an ignition source. In all the tested mixtures only smouldering fire was observed. The 50:50, 60:40, and 70:30 test substance:cellulose mixtures were tested. The maximum burning rate was determined to lie between 0.031 and 0.034 mm/s but not all the test propogated to the second reference mark; 4, 3, and 5 out of six tests for the 50:50, 60:40, and 70:30 mixtures, respectively. The maximum burning rate of the reference mixture barium nitrate/cellulose (60:40) was 2.7 mm/s. Overall, it was concluded that the test substance had no oxidizing properties.

Justification for classification or non-classification

As Reactive Red 245 has no oxidising properties, classification is not needed according to the EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
