Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
- Deviations:
- yes
- Remarks:
- , Instead a direct flame as proposed in the guideline, the ignition source was a platinum wire heated by electrical power (current 30A, about 1000°C)
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Conclusions:
- Diacides AGS is not "highly flammable" under the conditions of the test.
- Executive summary:
Diacides AGS is not "highly flammable" under the conditions of the test.
The composition of Diacides AGS is as follows: 51.6% glutaric acid, 23.5% adipic acid, 16.6% succinic acid.
Reference
The test itm didn't burn. It melts in contact of the ignition source. No further testing was required.
Diacides AGS is not "highly flammable" under the conditions of the test.
Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- not classified
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance has not to be classified concerning flammable solids, pyrophoric properties and flammability in contact with water.
The determination of the flammability was determined using a powder train about 250 mm long in accordance with EEC Directive 92/69 Appendix V part A 10. The test item didn't burn. It melts in contact of the ignition source. No further testing was required.
Dicarboxylic acids are not highly flammable under the conditions of the test (Rhodia, 2008b).
The substance contains no metals or metalloids and therefore will not release flammable gases in contact with water (Currenta, 2009).
Experience in production or handling; substance is known to be stable at room temperature. The substance is manufactured and handled under normal atmospheric conditions. According to experiences from manufacturing, the substance does not have pyrophoric properties (Currenta, 2009).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
