Description of key information

No ignition in contact with a flame: NOT a flammable solid (CLP/GHS)

Not pyrophoric. No release of flammable gases if contact with water. No self-heating anticipated. (waived)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

For classification of flammable solids, a fully reliable experimental study, conducted according to a recognized EC guideline and under GLP, is available. Therefore, it is considered as a key study.

Based on the chemical structure and experience, no flammable properties are anticipated if contact with air or water, or no self-heating, as a low melting solid; therefore studies were deemed unnecessary.

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008 (CLP) and UN Globally Harmonised System (GHS) criteria, the substance failed to ignite in the preliminary test (identical in UN N1 into force and previous EC A10), therefore the substance is NOT classified as a flammable solid.
