Results and discussion
Any other information on results incl. tables
In the preliminary screening test the substance is formed into an unbroken powder train aboutlong bywide byhigh on a base plate. A hot flame from a gas burner (diameter) is applied to one end of the powder train for 2 minutes.
The test was performed on the sample as received.
When the Bunsen flame was applied, the sample melted and on the pool of liquid that formed appeared a yellow flame 10 cm high, after about 10 seconds. Once the Bunsen flame was removed, the combustion of the pool ended after 83 seconds. Combustion only affected the molten area, the solid train was unburned.
The sample indicated as Mandelic Acid should not be considered as highly flammable and no further testing is required because no propagation in the preliminary test screening was observed.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The sample indicated as Mandelic Acid should not be considered as highly flammable
