Results and discussion

Flammable solids
Test procedure:
burning time (test type not further specified)
Remarks:
or specified in description of method (migrated information)
Burning time:
0 s
Remarks on result:
other: 3,5-DIACETOXYACETOPHENON could not be ignited, although it melted and emitted grey smoke in contact with the ignition source.

Any other information on results incl. tables

The values of burning time determined within six tests were evaluated (if applicable). The test substance is considered highly flammable when the time of burning (in one of the six tests carried out according to the outlined test procedure) is less than 45 seconds over a distance of 100 mm. Powders of metals or metal-alloys will be considered to be highly flammable when they can be ignited and the flame or the zone of reaction spreads over the whole sample.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not highly flammable
Conclusions:
3,5-DIACETOXYACETOPHENON could not be ignited, although it melted and emitted grey
smoke in contact with the ignition source.
ln conclusion, 3,5-DIACETOXYACETOPHENON is not "highly flammable" according to the
criteria of the directive.
