- 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.
Reference
The substance could be ignited with a flame and after a distance of 90 mm in approx. 9 min. the flame went out.
Description of key information
The source substance is not a readily combustible solid in the sense of Guideline 92/69/EEC, test A. 10.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- not classified

Justification for classification or non-classification
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).
