Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: VDI 2263 sheet 1
Deviations:
not specified
Principles of method if other than guideline:
A pile of the substance is arranged on ceramic plate and ignited at one end of the pile by a flame or a hot platinum wire. Spreading of the flame is classified visually between combustion number 1 (no ignition) and CN 6 (very rapid combustion with flame propargation). In case the combustion number is equal or higher than 4, additonally the burning velocity is measured.
GLP compliance:
no

Remarks:
corresponding to 'no' in migrated source record. | Remarks: | Additional remarks: no spreading of fire, only brief ignition and rapid extinction
Pyrophoric liquids
Test procedure:
ignition time on contact with air
Remarks:
Ignition on contact with air refers to either Pyrophoric solids or Pyrophoric liquids depending on physical state (migrated information).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
non flammable
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The test item has the combustion number 1. This means it shows only a brief ignition and then a rapid extinction, when tested as described above.
