Reference

Endpoint:

flammable solids

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

13 October 2016

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

guideline study

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))

Deviations:

no

GLP compliance:

yes (incl. QA statement)

Test procedure:

burning rate test: preliminary screening test

Remarks on result:

other: see "Remarks"

Remarks:

The part of the test item which had direct contact with the ignition source melted. During the ignition no independent burning or glowing over the length of the pile was observed.

Preliminary Test

About 16.7 g of the test item were used to form the test pile. The test was started by trying to ignite the pile at one end with a gas burner. After 2 minutes, the flame was removed from the test item. The part of the test item which had direct contact with the ignition source melted. During the ignition no independent burning or glowing over the length of the pile was observed.

Main Test

The main test was not performed because no burning or glowing over the length of the pile was observed in the preliminary test.

Interpretation of results:

not classified based on GHS criteria

Conclusions:

The flammability of the test item Sodium [[a,a'-(ethylenediimino)bis[2-hydroxybenzene-1-acetato]](4-)]ferrate(1-) was determined according to EC method A. 10. The results were reliable and the study was conducted under GLP, therefore the study can be regarded as Klimisch 1.
No independent burning or glowing over the length of the pile was observed in the preliminary test. Since no independent burning or glowing over the length of the pile was observed, the test item has not to be classified as 'flammable solid' according to EC Regulation No 1272/2008.

Executive summary:

The flammability of the test item Sodium [[a,a'-(ethylenediimino)bis[2-hydroxybenzene-1-acetato]](4-)]ferrate(1-) was determined according to EC method A. 10.

No independent burning or glowing over the length of the pile was observed in the preliminary test. Since no independent burning or glowing over the length of the pile was observed, the test item has not to be classified as 'flammable solid' according to EC Regulation No 1272/2008.

Additional information

Bowes-Cameron-Cage tests (UN-Test N.4) were performed with the test item sodium [[α,α'-(ethylenediimino)bis[2-hydroxybenzene-1-acetato]](4-)]ferrate(1-).

The test in the 1 L wire basket at 140 °C showed a self-ignition of the test item with a temperature increase of > 60 °C within 24 hours.

The test in the 15.625 ml_ wire basket at 140 °C showed a slight self-heating of the test item with a temperature increase of < 60 °C within 24 hours.

The test in the 1 L wire basket at 120 °C showed a self-ignition of the test item with a temperature increase of < 60 °C within 24 hours.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Since no independent burning or glowing over the length of the pile was observed, the test item has not to be classified as 'flammable solid' according to EC Regulation No 1272/2008.
