Description of key information

Not highly flammable.
Not considered to have potential for pyrophoricity or flammability on contact with water.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

A GLP study was conducted for the determination of the burning rate of the test substance.

The tests for flammability in contact with air or water were waived based on chemical structure of the major components, and experience in handling and use.

Justification for classification or non-classification

As the substance failed to ignite in the burning rate test (EU A10 method), it is classified as not highly flammable according to Directive 67/548/EEC Annex VI criteria.

The preliminary test in EC A10 method is identical to the one of test N1 of UN manual of tests and criteria (Recommendations on the transport of dangerous goods, 4th revised edition, 2008), therefore the result also fulfills criteria for non-classification according to Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008 (CLP).
