Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
28.03.2018
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
Version / remarks:
31. May 2008
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Key result
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
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

In the preliminray screening test following EU and UN method, the test item was heated with the flame of a Teclu burner. The test item melted into a yellow clear liquid. No signs of ignition were observed.

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The test item N-(hydroxymethyl) stearamide is considered as "not highly flammable" (for EU regulations), not flammable solid (for UN regulations)
