Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The mean burning times of the test substance/cellulose mixtures are both greater than the mean burning time of the potassium bromate/cellulose mixtures.
Executive summary:

To determine the oxidizing properties of the substance a study was performed according to UN Test O.1 and in compliance with GLP. In this study the mean burning times of the test substance/cellulose mixtures is greater than burning time of the potassium bromate/cellulose mixtures. In accordance with the criteria of UN Test O.1, the test substance is not classified as an oxidizing solid.

Description of key information

The mean burning time of the test substance/cellulose mixtures is greater than that of the reference mixture, UN Test O.1, Jackson 2016

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Oxidising properties:
non oxidising

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the available information, classification for oxidising properties is not warranted in accordance with EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation No. (EC) 1272/2008.
