Results and discussion
Flammable solids
- Key result
- Test procedure:
- burning rate test: preliminary screening test
- Burning time:
- < 3 min
- Remarks on result:
- substance does not ignite and propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period
Pyrophoric solids
- Key result
- Remarks on result:
- not measured/tested
- Remarks:
- under normal handling no ignition observed
Substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
- Key result
- Remarks on result:
- no reaction with water observed
- Remarks:
- in a water solubility test
Any other information on results incl. tables
The flame of the gas burner did ignite the test item pile. The test item melted, burned with a blue flame and turned into a beige residue. Grey smoke was observed. After removal of the ignition source, the flame extinguished immediately and no propagation of combustion was observed.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The substance is non-flammable.
- Executive summary:
The substance is non-flammable. During handling of the substance no flammability in contact with water or ignition in contact with air was observed.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
