Flammability

Link to relevant study record(s)

Reference

Endpoint:

flammable solids

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

30. May 2017

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

guideline study

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

UN Manual of Tests and Criteria: Test N.1 (Test method for readily combustible solids)

GLP compliance:

yes (incl. QA statement)

Key result

Test procedure:

burning rate test over 100 mm length

Burning time:

7 min

Interpretation of results:

not classified based on GHS criteria

Conclusions:

The combustion along 200 mm took 7 minutes. This leads to a combustion rate of 0.476 mm/s.
As the combustion with flame of the test item propagated more than 4 minutes along 200 mm of the string, the test item 2-Lauroyloxyethyltrimethylammonium Chloride should be considered as not highly flammable (for EU regulations) and non-flammable solid (for UN regulations), respectively.
