Key result
Remarks on result:
other: not highly flammable

The test substance did not contain groups that might lead to ignition in contact with water and/or to the evolution of a flammable gas. Moreover the test substance was dissolved in aqueous samples during this project. It demonstrated that the test substance does not ignite spontaneously in contact with water.

Interpretation of results:
other: not highly flammable
Conclusions:
Under the study conditions, the test substance was considered 'not highly flammable'.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the flammability potential of the test substance according to EU Method A.12, UN manual of tests and criteria, Test N.5 and UN no. ST/SG/AC.10/11/Rev.5. A test substance is considered highly flammable when it ignites spontaneously in contact with water or evolves a flammable gas at a minimum rate of ≥ 1 L/kg/h. The test substance did not contain groups that might lead to ignition in contact with water and/or to the evolution of a flammable gas. Moreover the test substance was dissolved in aqueous samples during this project. It demonstrated that the test substance does not ignite spontaneously in contact with water. Under the study conditions, the test substance was considered 'not highly flammable' (Oudhoff, 2012).

Description of key information

Flammability was determined according to EU Method A.12, UN manual of tests and criteria, Test N.5 and UN no. ST/SG/AC.10/11/Rev.5.
