Flammability in Contact with Water

No ignition was observed on tests 1, 2 and 3 and no gas was evolved. There was no gas evolved or ignition on Test 4. Therefore the test substance was not considered flammable in contact with water.

Interpretation of results:
other: ← Complete pick list based on CLP criteria, see below
Conclusions:
The test substance was not found to react with water and produce a flammable gas.
