Results and discussion

Flammable solids
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
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

Any other information on results incl. tables

The test item could not be ignited with a flame during the preliminary test (contact time of about 2 minutes). In contact with the ignition source, the flame of the gas burner expanded and became orange. The surface of the test item became incrusted and was building

crumbs. Underneath the grayish black incrustation the test item was still powdery.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified as flammable according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008
Conclusions:
not highly flammable
Executive summary:

The determination of the flammability of the test item was performed according to the EU Method A.10.

The test item could not be ignited with a flame during the preliminary test (contact time of about 2 minutes). In contact with the ignition source, the flame of the gas burner expanded and became orange. The surface of the test item became incrusted and was building crumbs. Underneath the grayish black incrustation the test item was still powdery. Therefore, no main test was performed.

In conclusion, the substance is not "highly flammable" according to the criteria of the guideline.
