Conclusions:
The maximum burning rate obtained with the test item was:

3.70 mm/s for the test item / cellulose mixture (10/90%).

The maximum burning rate obtained with the reference item was:

3.92 mm/s for the reference item / cellulose mixture (50/50%).

The maximum burning rate of test item / cellulose mixture was slower than the maximum burning rate with reference item / cellulose mixture.


The test item was not considered to have oxidizing properties under the experimental conditions used.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

The maximum burning rate of test item / cellulose mixture was (3.70 mm/s for the test item / cellulose mixture (10/90%) which is slower than the maximum burning rate with reference item / cellulose mixture which was at (3.92 mm/s for the reference item / cellulose mixture (50/50%).

The test item was not considered to have oxidizing properties under the experimental conditions used.
