Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
05 October 1998
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes
Key result
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
Remarks on result:
substance does not ignite and propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period

The substance could be ignited with a flame and after a distance of 90 mm in approx. 9 min. the flame went out.

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The test substance is not a readily combustible solid in the sense of Guideline 92/69/EEC, test A. 10.
Executive summary:

The purpose of the test was the determination of the flammability (solids) according to Guideline 92/69/EEC of 31 July 1992, Annex. Part A: Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties. A. 10. Flammability (Solids). The study was conducted in compliance with the Principles of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP).

 

Performance of the test

Preliminary test:

Ignite one end of the pile. When the pile has burned over a distance of 200 mm during 4 minutes, the main test has to be performed. If there was no ignition of the test substance or the pile has burned slower than 200 mm during 4 minutes, the main test is unnecessary.

 

Results

The substance could be ignited with a flame and after a distance of 90 mm in approx. 9 min. the flame went out.

 

The test substance is not a readily combustible solid in the sense of Guideline 92/69/EEC, test A. 10.

Description of key information

The test substance is not a readily combustible solid in the sense of Guideline 92/69/EEC, test A. 10.
