Key result
Test procedure:
100 mm sample cube at 140°C
Result:
negative outcome (no effect observed)

No spontaneous ignition occurred and no exothermic effect of the test item was observed.  It demonstrated that the test item is “not a self-heating substance”. According to the UN guideline, no further testing is required.

After the experiment, the consistency of the sample was unchanged, i.e. no melting or reaction and/or decomposition of the test item was observed.

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Remarks:
and not classified based on CLP criteria
Conclusions:
The substance is not self-heating.
