Results and discussion

Flammable solids
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

Any other information on results incl. tables

The test item did not ignite at room temperature using a flame as ignition source being applied for at least 2 minutes. The test item melted.

According to the guidelines, performance of the burning rate test is not required. The test item has to be classified neither as readily combustible solid in Class 4, Division 4.1 according to the UN Transport Regulation, nor as flammable solid according to GHS / CLP Regulation EC 1272/2008.
