Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Comments

Test-1

-

After the applying the flame to the sample, the sample melt but the sample did not ignite. Combustion did not propagate to the next part of the train. Result: NEGATIVE

Test-2

-

Test-3

-

Since the result was negative, it was not necessary to go to the next stage of determination.


Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified (CLP Regulation EC no. 1272/2008)
Conclusions:
The tested material is not highly flammable in accordance with EU method A.10. criteria.

Executive summary:

The flammability of the test item was determined according to EU Method A.10 (GLP study). In the preliminary screening test (3 replicates), after applying the flame to the sample, the sample melted but did not ignite. Combustion did not propagate to the next part of the train. Thus, the result was negative and it was not necessary to conduct the burning rate test. The tested material is not highly flammable.


Endpoint:
substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the experience in production or handling shows that the substance does not react with water, e.g. the substance is manufactured with water or washed with water
Justification for type of information:
JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
The test was not performed experimentally because practical experience exists at the sponsor and the test facility, e.g. when preparing test substance solutions for testing. The test substance in contact with water do not develop any gas at all, therefore is regarded as not being flammable in contact with water.
Endpoint:
pyrophoric solids
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days) and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied
Justification for type of information:
JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
The test was not performed experimentally because practical experience, e.g. in manufacture or handling shows that the substance does not ignite spontaneously on coming into contact with air at normal temperatures (i.e. the substance is known to be stable at
room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days). The test substance is therefore regarded as not being pyrophoric.

Description of key information

Flammability: Key study. Method according to EU Method A.10, GLP study. The test item is not highly flammable.

Pyrophoric properties: Data waiving (study scientifically not necessary / other information available): Practical experience in manufacture and handling shows that the substance does not ignite spontaneously on coming into contact with air at normal temperatures.
Flammability in contact with water: Data waiving (study scientifically not necessary / other information available): The substance is not classified as flammable in contact with water based on the experience in handling / use which shows that the substance does not react with water.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the available data, the substance is not classified as flammable solid according to CLP Regulation no. 1272/2008.
