Test procedure:

other: Not applicable

Identity of evolved gas:

not applicable as no gas evolved

Remarks on result:

no reaction with water observed

Test Results – Initial Tests

No gas generation or spontaneous ignitions were observed during any of the tests.

Test Information – Final Test

10 g of the sample was charged to a round bottom flask which was connected to a pressure equalised dropping funnel containing 20 ml of water and an automated gas burette system.

The water was then added rapidly to the flask. The rate and quantity of gas generated was measured for 1 hour or until the gas generation had ceased. The test was conducted three times.

Test Results – Final Test

No gas generation or spontaneous ignitions were observed during any of the tests. The sample does not generate flammable gases in contact with water.

Interpretation of results:

not classified based on GHS criteria

Conclusions:

No gas generation or spontaneous ignitions were observed during any of the tests. The sample does not generate flammable gases in contact with water.

Executive summary:

The flammability test (contact with water) is conducted in accordance with the procedure described in EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A12.

No gas generation or spontaneous ignitions were observed during any of the tests. The sample does not generate flammable gases in contact with water.

Key result

Test procedure:

effect on filter paper

Remarks on result:

no ignition within 5 minutes

Test Results for Porcelaine Cup Test:

Test Number	Ignition or no Ignition	Observations
1	No ignition	No reaction
2	No ignition	No reaction
3	No ignition	No reaction
4	No ignition	No reaction
5	No ignition	No reaction
6	No ignition	No reaction

Test Results for Filter Paper test:

Test Number	Ignition or no Ignition	Charring or no charring	Observations
1	No ignition	No charring	No reaction
2	No ignition	No charring	No readtion
3	No ignition	No charring	No reaction

No ignition or charring was observed during any test. The sample is therefore "Not a pyrophoric liquid".

Interpretation of results:

not classified based on GHS criteria

Conclusions:

No ignition or charring was observed during any test. The sample is therefore ‘Not a pyrophoric liquid’.

Executive summary:

The test is designed to determine the ability of a solid or liquid to ignite on contact with air.

The test is conducted in accordance with the procedure described in EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A13.

No ignition or charring was observed during any test. The sample is therefore ‘Not a pyrophoric liquid’.

Description of key information

The emission of flammable gases of the substance in contact with water is evaluated in accordance with the procedure described in EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A12.

No gas generation or spontaneous ignitions were observed during any of the tests. Therefore, the sample does not generate flammable gases in contact with water.

The pyrophoric properties of liquids test is conducted in accordance with the procedure described in EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A13.

No ignition or charring was observed during any test. The sample is therefore ‘Not a pyrophoric liquid’.

In addition, the sample is not considered a flammable gas nor a flammable solid as the substance is a liquid. The endpoint self-heating is also not applicable to liquids.
