Any other information on results incl. tables

ln the vicinity of the heat source in the high-temperature zone the substance was melted. The entire melted surface was burned with flame. After removing the heat source, the combustion was spread. The color of the melt was black. Combustion did not propagate along 200 mm of the train within the 2 minutes test period.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

non flammable

Remarks:

Migrated informationAfter removing the heat source, the combustion was spread. The combustion did not propagate along 200 mm of the train within the 2 minutes test period.

Conclusions:

The substance (methyl-cyclopentanedione) not be considered as flammable and no further testing is required. According to the GHS criteria the measured substance cannot be classified.
