Endpoint:
flammable solids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
October 2009
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Comparable to guideline study (EC A.10.) with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: UN Transport Regulation Test N.1
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
no
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
Remarks:
Combustion Class Number (BZ = Brennzahl) 2: Catches fire briefly and estinguishes (definition according to Directive VDI 2263)
Burning time:
s
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

The combustion time of the test item pile was tested over a distance of 200 mm: Bried ignition and rapid extinction, resultin in BZ (Burnring number) =2.

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The combustion time of the test item was trested on a pile over a distance of 200 mm, resulting afetr a brief ignition and rapid extinction.
The product has to be classified neither as highly flammable solid according to EC 440/2008, Part A, A.10., nor as readily combustible solid in class 4.1 according to the UN-Transport Regulation and nor as flammable solid according to GHS.
Executive summary:

The combustion time of the test item pile was tested over a distance of 200 mm: Bried ignition and rapid extinction, resultin in BZ (Burnring number) =2.

The product has to be classified neither as highly flammable solid according to EC 440/2008, Part A, A.10., nor as readily combustible solid in class 4.1 according to the UN-Transport Regulation and nor as flammable solid according to GHS.
