- Conclusions:
- It was determined that boric acid should be classified as not a self heating substance of Class 4, Division 4.2.
- Executive summary:
The test item was assessed according to GLP and United Nations Recommendations on the Transportation of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria for substances of Class 4, Division 4.2 for its auto-flammability properties. No auto-flammability or self-heating was observed during performance of the test.
Reference
Appearance before test: White crystalline solid.
Appearance after test: Unchanged in size, the sample had melted to form a skin on the surface of the sample with free-flowing, granular white powder underneath.
It was determined that boric acit should be classified as not a self heating substance of Class 4, Division 4.2.
