Specific details on test material used for the study:

SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source and lot/batch No.of test material: 09979EB5
- Expiration date of the lot/batch: March 14, 2011

STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: At room temperatme at about 20 °C

Flammability

In contact with the ignition source, FAT 36034/G melted and changed to black. FAT 36034/G emitted some very flashy sparks. FAT 36034/G could not be ignited with a flame during the preliminary test (contact time of about 2 minutes).

Flammability in Contact with Water and Pyrophoric Properties

Chemical Structure

The appraisal of the molecular structure indicates no risk with respect to pyrophoric properties or the potential of evolving flammable gases in contact with water or humid air.

Practical Experience

Studies were performed in aqueous test systems (e.g. water solubility). The test item did not show any spontaneous ignition or formation of flammable gases performing the above-mentioned study.

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

FAT 36034/G is not highly flammable according to the criteria of the guideline.

Executive summary:

This test is carried out as per EEC Directive 92/69, A.lO, A.l2 and A.13 in GLP environment with FAT 36034/G. Test material could not be ignited with a flame during the preliminary test (contact time of about 2 minutes). Therefore, no main test was performed. The test item does not ignite spontaneously when in contact with water or humid air and shows no risk with respect to pyrophoric properties. So, FAT 36034/G is not highly flammable according to the criteria of the guideline.

Description of key information

FAT 36034/G is not "highly flammable" according to the criteria of the guideline.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:

not classified

Additional information

In a GLP study (2008), carried out according to EEC Directive 92/69, A.10, A.12 and A.13 with FAT 36034/G. Test material could not be ignited with a flame during the preliminary test (contact time of about 2 minutes). Therefore, no main test was performed.

The test item does not ignite spontaneously when in contact with water or humid air and shows no risk with respect to pyrophoric properties. So, FAT 36034/G is not highly flammable according to the criteria of the guideline. In another supporting study carried out according to EU method A.10, no ignition was observed throughout the course of the test and the test item FAT 36034/H should be considered as not highly flammable.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Disperse Red 86:1 is considered to be not flammable, hence it does not warrant classification as per the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
