Conclusions:
The test substance is not considered highly flammable.
Executive summary:

In this study conducted to generally accepted scientific standards the test material (EC 404-363-3) was determined to not be highly flammable

Description of key information

Study conducted to generally recognised scientific standards

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

- Upon ignition the substance melted and no ignition

- Based on chemical structure and experience in handling and use of substance the pyrophoric properties and the flammability in contact with water are not to be expected

- not highly flammable upon ignition

- no pyrophoric properties

- does not liberate flammable gases on contact with water

Justification for classification or non-classification

- Upon ignition the substance melted and no ignition

- Based on chemical structure and experience in handling and use of substance the pyrophoric properties and the flammability in contact with water are not to be expected.

The theoretical assessments of pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are based on section R.7.1.10 of Guidance chapter R.7a of REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006.

It can be concluded that the substance is not considered to be classified as a flammable material
