Reference
Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
4 February 1999 to 12 February 1999.
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Study conducted in compliance with agreed protocols, with no or minor deviations from standard test guidelines and/or minor methodological deficiencies, which do not affect the quality of relevant results.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Remarks:
(Date of inspection: 23 March 1998 Date of Signature: 21 July 1998)
Test procedure:
ignition time on contact with air
Remarks:
Ignition on contact with air refers to either Pyrophoric solids or Pyrophoric liquids depending on physical state (migrated information).
Remarks on result:
other: No ignition

Extremely flammable (Meth A9/A2): N
Highly flammable: N
Pyrophoric substance (A13): N
Highly flammable solid (A10): N
In contact with water substance liberates highly flammable gases (A12): N
Flammable (A9): N

Interpretation of results:
non flammable
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The substance has been determined to be not highly flammable as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
Executive summary:

The substance has been determined to be not highly flammable as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test (Method A.10 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).

The test material does not meet the criteria for classification according to the Council Directive 67/548/EEC. Although UN test has not been performed, the test material is considered not to be classified under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, based on the results of EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids).

Description of key information

The substance has been determined to be not highly flammable as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test (Method A.10 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
non flammable

Additional information

The substance has been determined to be not highly flammable as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test (Method A.10 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).

The test described above meet the requirements of OECD Test Guidelines and are assigned to be reliability 1 data according to the scoring system of Klimisch et al (Klimischet al., 1997). This ranking was deemed appropriate because the studies were conducted at the GLP certified laboratory and were in compliance with agreed protocols, with no or minor deviations from standard test guidelines and/or minor methodological deficiencies, which do not affect the quality of relevant results.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The test material does not meet the criteria for classification according to the Council Directive 67/548/EEC. Although UN test has not been performed, the test material is considered not to be classified under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, based on the results of EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids).
