Reference
Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
10/11/2016
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Key result
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
Remarks on result:
other: The pile failed to ignite during the 2 minutes that the Bunsen flame was applied. The result of the preliminary screening test obviated the need to perform the main test.
Interpretation of results:
other: not flammable
Remarks:
in accordance with EU CLP (EC 1272/2008 and its updates)
Conclusions:
The substance Ethyl Maltol has been determined to be not highly flammable as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test and therefore does not need to be classified for flammability in accordance with the criteria outlined in Annex I of the CLP Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
Executive summary:

The substance Ethyl Maltol has been determined to be not highly flammable as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test during the 2 minutes that the Bunsen flame was applied. The test was performed according to a procedure designed to be compatible with EU Method A.10 Flammability (Solids) under GLP.
