Endpoint:

flammable solids

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

guideline study

Justification for type of information:

This substance used here is SugaNate 160NC, a composition very similar to 100NC, the main difference being only in the carbon chain length of the alkyl glycoside. SugaNate 160NC is C10-C16 alkyl glycoside and SugaNate 100NC is C8-C10 alkyl glycoside. The rest of the structure is identical. Both substances are produced and marketed as ca 40% actives in an aqueous solution. In this particular test, the substance has been dried, the water has been removed leaving a pale yellow semi-solid.
SugaNate 160NC is considered to be a very good surrogate substance for read-across for SugaNate 100NC in either solution or dried form.

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))

Version / remarks:

EC Regulation No.440/2008, Annex A.10

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

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

Phenomena and results from two independent preliminary screening tests, were identical as following:
- the sample was ignited within 2 min；
- after removal of ignition, the sample didn’t propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering along 200 mm of the train within the 4 min
