Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The preliminary screening test was performed for the determination of the flammability of Amines, N-tallow alkyltrimethylenedi-, C4-18-alkyl phosphates.

No propagation of combustion of the test item along 200 mm length of the pile within 2 minutes was observed. According to the guidelines, performance of the burning rate test is not required. Based on the results obtained, the test item is considered ‘not flammable’.

Executive summary:

Introduction

The flammability of the test substance was determined by a method designed to meet the requirements of the following guideline:

• UN Test N.1. Test Method for Readily Combustible Solids. 2015.

Method

A preliminary screening test was performed. The test item was loosely filled into an aluminium mould of 250 mm long with a triangular cross-section of inner height of 10 mm and width of 20 mm. A flame of a gas burner was applied to one end of the test item pile until the test item ignited. The pile was visually interpreted for propagation of combustion either by burning with a flame or smouldering. 

Result

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 yellow residue. After removal of the ignition source, the flame extinguished after 1 second and no propagation of combustion was observed. 

Conclusion

A preliminary screening test was performed for the determination of the flammability of Amines, N-tallow alkyltrimethylenedi-, C4-18-alkyl phosphates.

No propagation of combustion of the test item along 200 mm length of the pile within 2 minutes was observed.  According to the guidelines, performance of the burning rate test is not required.  Based on the results obtained, the test item is considered ‘not flammable’.
