Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: Method N.1 specified in the United Nations, Recommedations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, fourth revised edition, 2003.
Deviations:
no
Principles of method if other than guideline:
A mould (250 x 20 x 10 mm) was loosely filled with test item (tested as received). A noncombustible, non-porous board was placed onto the mould which was then inverted. The mould was removed and an air-rich Bunsen burner flame applied to one end of the pile for five minutes.
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)

Test material

Constituent 1
Reference substance name:
Refinable No 5.2: Speiss leaching residue
IUPAC Name:
Refinable No 5.2: Speiss leaching residue
Details on test material:
- Name of test material (as cited in study report): Refinable No 5.2: Speiss leaching residue
- Physical state: Dark grey solid
- Lot/batch number: 151944
- Storage condition of test material: Room temperature in the dark

Results and discussion

Flammable solids
Test procedure:
burning time (test type not further specified)
Remarks:
or specified in description of method (migrated information)
Remarks on result:
other: The pile failed to ignite during the five minutes that the Bunsen flame was applied.
Pyrophoric solids
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:
no ignition on contact with air (not further specified)
Remarks:
corresponding to 'no' in migrated source record.
Pyrophoric liquids
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:
no ignition on contact with air (not further specified)
Remarks:
corresponding to 'no' in migrated source record.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
non flammable
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The test item is not classified as a readily combustible solid under Division 4.1 as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
Executive summary:

The results of a GLP compliant, guideline test are that the test item is not classified as a readily combustible solid under Division 4.1 as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
