Results and discussion
Pyrophoric solids
- 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.
Pyrophoric liquids
- 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.
Any other information on results incl. tables
The test item showed no reaction when a flame was applied as ignition source at ambient temperature. The product melted.
The test item showed a very brief inflammation of the gases caused by decomposition of the test item when a hot platinum wire was applied as ignition source at ambient temperature. The product melted.
Due to the fact that the pile could not be ignited with a flame, the main test was not necessary.
The combustion behaviour of the product at ambient temperature is characterized by the combustion number BZ 1 (no ignition).
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- non flammable
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- The test item is not a highly flammable solid in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A.10.
The test item has a burning number of BZ 1 according to VDI 2263, sheet 1. - Executive summary:
Flammability was tested in a preliminary test according to EU Method A.10 and VDI guideline 2263. The test substance was rated with BZ (Brennzahl 1) and is therefore not a highly flammable solid.
