Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- March - April 2010
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Test procedure:
- burning time (test type not further specified)
- Remarks:
- or specified in description of method (migrated information)
- Burning time:
- > 240 s
- Test procedure:
- ignition time on contact with air
- Remarks:
- Ignition on contact with air refers to either Pyrophoric solids or Pyrophoric liquids depending on physical state (migrated information).
- Remarks on result:
- no ignition on contact with air (not further specified)
- Remarks:
- corresponding to 'no' in migrated source record.
- Test procedure:
- ignition time on contact with air
- Remarks:
- Ignition on contact with air refers to either Pyrophoric solids or Pyrophoric liquids depending on physical state (migrated information).
- Remarks on result:
- no ignition on contact with air (not further specified)
- Remarks:
- corresponding to 'no' in migrated source record.
- Interpretation of results:
- non flammable
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- Docusate Sodium is not highly flammable
- Executive summary:
The flammability of Docusate Sodium was determined according to EC A.10 “Determination of the Flammability (Solids)". The combustion speed was > 240 s for 200 mm. Therefore, the test was stopped after the pre-test and Docusate Sodium is considered to be not highly flammable.
The results of this test are considered to be relevant and reliable for the risk assessment.
Reference
Propagation time for combustion over 200 mm: > 240 s
Result: negative; no further testing required
Docusate Sodium is not highly flammable.
Description of key information
Docusate Sodium is not highly flammable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
In the Klimisch 1 key study from Holzschuh (2010) the flammability of Docusate Sodium was determined according to EC A.10 “Determination of the Flammability (Solids)". The combustion speed was > 240 s for 200 mm. Therefore, Docusate Sodium is considered to be not highly flammable.
The results of this test are considered to be relevant and reliable for the risk assessment.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Docusate sodium is not highly flammable. Therefore, classification is not needed.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
