Results and discussion

Flammable solids
Key result
Test procedure:
burning rate test: preliminary screening test
Remarks on result:
other: The substance does ignite but does not propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering

Any other information on results incl. tables

The flame of the gas burner did ignite the test item rope. The test item melted, burned with a orange and blue flame and turned into a brown residue. White smoke was observed. After removal of the ignition source, the flame extinguished after 1 second and no propagation of combustion was observed. 

According to the UN guideline, no further testing is required.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified based on GHS or CLP criteria
Conclusions:
The substance is not a flammable solid.
Executive summary:

A GLP study according to EC A.10 and UN Test N.1 was performed. In the preliminary screening test, the substance does ignite but does not propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering along 200 mm of the test item pile. The substance melted in contact with the flame.

The substance is concluded to be not a flammable solid.
