Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Endpoint:
substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the experience in production or handling shows that the substance does not react with water, e.g. the substance is manufactured with water or washed with water

Specific details on test material used for the study:
Storage conditions: ambient temperature (10 to 30 °C)
Key result
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
Remarks on result:
other: The test item could not be ignited with a flame. The performance of the main test was not necessary.
Remarks:
The test item is not a highly flammable solid in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A.10.

Results
Preliminary Test
The performance of the main test was not needed since the test item could not be ignited with a flame. According to EC No. 440/2008, Method A.10. the test item is not a highly flammable solid.

Description of key information

Substance is not a highly flammable solid (EU Method A.10., Burning rate preliminary screening test).

No pyrophoricity.

No flammability on contact with water.

Not self-heating (EU Method A.16.)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

The flammability of the substance was determined according to EU Method A.10. Based on the chemical structure and experience in handling and use, pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not expected.

The substance is not self-heating based on the auto-flammability study according to EU Method A.16.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The available data on flammability of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification: No propagation of burning in a test according to EU Method A.10. Based on the chemical structure and experience in handling and use, pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not expected.

A preliminary test excludes self-heating of the substance up to 401 °C, based on EU Method A.16.
