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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2012
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Key result
- Test procedure:
- burning rate test: preliminary screening test
- Remarks on result:
- substance does not ignite and propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The substance is not considered to meet the GHS criteria for classification as flammable
- Endpoint:
- pyrophoric solids
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is completely molten at 160°C
- 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

Preliminary test: Brief burning and rapid extinction was observed.
Main test: Omitted due to result of preliminary test.
Description of key information
Not flammable upon ignition. No pyrophoric properties. Does not liberate flammable gases on contact with water.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
Upon ignition the test substance was brief burning and had rapid extinction
Based on chemical structure and experience in handling and use of the substance, pyrophoric properties and flammability in contact with water are not to be expected.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Upon ignition the test substance was brief burning and had rapid extinction. The flash point was determined to be above 200°C
Based on chemical structure and experience in handling and use of the substance, pyrophoric properties and flammability in contact with water are not to be expected.
The theoretical assessments of pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are based on section R.7.1.10 of Guidance chapter R.7a of REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907 /2006.
It can be concluded that the substance is not classified as flammable
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
