Description of key information

The test item was not flammable in either a flammability test for solids (failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test) or a flash point test for liquids (226 ± 2 °C at 100.3 kPa)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
non flammable

Additional information

The flammability (solids) was determined by measuring the burning rate of test item prepared as a pile of set dimensions. Testing was conducted using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A10 Flammability (solids) of Comission REgulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008

The test item has been determined to be not highly flammable as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.

Method A9 Flash Point; Closed cup equilibrium method of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008

The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 226 ± 2 °C at 100.3 kPa.

Based on chemical structure, pyrophoricity and flammability in contact with water are not expected.

Justification for classification or non-classification

No classification, the substance is a non flammable solid.

 

Justification: The substance is a solid that failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test and has a flash point of 226°C at 100.3 kPa (> 60 °C). Based on the chemical structure pyrophoricity and flammability in contact with water are not expected.
