2	The test item was absorbed onto the filter paper. There were no signs of charring or ignition.
3	The test item was absorbed onto the filter paper. There were no signs of charring or ignition.

Interpretation of results:

other: non-pyrophoric

Conclusions:

The test item, IFF TM 215 (Floriane) has been determined to be non-pyrophoric as it did not spontaneously ignite during the test.

Executive summary:

The prophoric properties of the test substance IFF TM 215 (Floriane) were assessed according to EU Method A13. The test item has been determined to be non-pyrophoric as it did not spontaneously ignite during the test.

Description of key information

The prophoric properties of the test substance IFF TM 215 (Floriane) were assessed according to EU Method A13. The test item has been determined to be non-pyrophoric as it did not spontaneously ignite during the test.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Pyrophoric liquids are defined as liquid substances which, even in small quantities, are liable to ignite within five minutes of coming into contact with air.

Pyrophoric liquids are classified in a single category and classification in this cateory is determine by whether the substance ignites within five minutes when added to an inert carrier and exposed to air, or it ignites or chars a filter paper on contact with air within five minites.

The test substance, IFF 215 (Floriane) was assessed for pyrophoric properties using exposure to diatomaceous earth and to filter paper. The test substance did not spontaneously ignite during the test and is therefore considered to be non-pyrophoric.
