Safety Pre-Test

The test substance melted into a yellow liquid, which became brown and burnt residue-free.

 Preliminary Screening Test

 Observations Step 1

The test substance ignited immediately.

 Observations Step 2

The test substance burnt with a wide orange flame. The flame died when the test substance was complete burnt. Combustion along 200 mm took 5 minutes and 24.46 seconds.

Since the burning time was ˂ 4 min no determination of burning rate was necessary.

Results

The test substance Dipicolinic acid (DPA) should be considered as not highly flammable (for EU regulations) and non-flammable solid (for UN regulations), resp.
