Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Flammability
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- Remarks:
- Substance is not flammable according to science: https://cameochemicals.noaa.gov/chemical/5375
- 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 known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days) and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied
- Justification for type of information:
- In accordance with Section 1 of REACH Annex XI and Chapter 7.1.12 of REACH Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, the study is scientifically unjustified. The self-ignition temperature of a substance is defined as a minimum temperature at which the substance will ignite at predefined conditions. Ignition implies that the substance will interact with oxygen in strong exothermic reaction. However, as the metal ion (boron) are already present in the highest possible oxidation state and fluorine is a more electronegative element than oxygen, the interaction with oxygen is not possible, thus the substance is essentially non-flammable. Therefore the performance of the test on the auto ignition temperature is considered to be not necessary.

Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
