Flammability
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:
- other: GLP Compliant, guideline study, available as unpublished report, acceptable without restrictions.
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: EC No 1272/2008 Method N.1 of the United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Danergous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, fifth revised edition 2009
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Test procedure:
- burning rate test: preliminary screening test
- Remarks on result:
- substance does not ignite and propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Potassium dicyanoaurate is not classified as a readily combustible solid under Division 4.1 as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
- Executive summary:
This is a GLP-compliant, guideline study considered suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint. Potassium dicyanoaurate is not classified as a readily combustible solid under Division 4.1 as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
Reference
Pile failed to ignite during the two minutes that the Bunsen flame was applied.
Description of key information
Potassium dicyanoaurate is not classified as a readily combustible solid under Division 4.1 as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- not classified
Additional information
A GLP-compliant, guideline study is available for this endpoint (Harlan Laboratories 2011) and is considered suitable for use as the key study.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Potassium dicyanoaurate is not classified as a readily combustible solid under Division 4.1 based on experimental data, as it failed to ignite in the preliminary screening test.
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).
