flammable solids

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

2014

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

guideline study

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))

GLP compliance:

yes

Specific details on test material used for the study:

None

Key result

Test procedure:

burning rate test: preliminary screening test

Remarks on result:

substance does not ignite and propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period

Safety Pre-Test:

A small amount of the test item was heated on a magnesia groove with a gas burner. Glowing was observed. The test item showed no signs of ignition.

Preliminary screening test:

The test item was heated with the flame of a teclu burner. Glowing was observed during heating. No ignition occurred within two minutes.

Conclusions:

FAT 21030/E TE should be considered as not highly flammable.

Executive summary:

FAT 21030/E TE was evaluated for flammability potential in a test conducted in accordance to EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids)). During the screening test, a 250 mm pile of the test item was heated with the flame of a teclu burner. Glowing was observed during heating. No ignition occurred within two minutes. Hence, determination of burning rate was not required and the test item FAT 21030/E TE was considered as not highly flammable.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:

not classified

Justification for classification or non-classification

FAT 21030/E TE was considered as not highly flammable, hence it does not require classification in accordance with the criteria of Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
