Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
13 April to 17 May 2007
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
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 flame was held on the test material for 2 minutes in which time the test substance melted. The test material melted and burned with a yellow flame when in contact with the ignition source but did not propagated along the pile when source removed.

The result of the preliminary screening test obviated the need to perform the main test as it did not ignite and burn.

Interpretation of results:
non flammable
Conclusions:
The test material has been determined to be not highly flammable as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.

Description of key information

 The flame was held on the test material for 2 minutes in which time the test substance melted. The test material melted and burned with a yellow flame when in contact with the ignition source but did not propagated along the pile when source removed.

The result of the preliminary screening test obviated the need to perform the main test as it did not ignite and burn.
