Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Shikimic acid is not highly flammable.
- Executive summary:
The test was conducted according to EC A.10 “Determination of the Flammability (Solids)”. In a preliminary essay, it was observed, whether the combustion propagated over a distance of 200mm within 4 minutes. If the time was longer than 4 minutes (240 s), no further testing was re-quired according to guideline. The time was longer than 4 minutes. Based on this result shikimic acid is classified as not highly flammable.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
