Each mixture is formed into a truncated conical pile and this is ignited.

If the mean burning rate of one of the test substance mixtures is equal to or greater than the mean burning rate of the reference mixture calcium peroxide and cellulose (1:2), the test substance is to be classified as oxidizing.<\/p>\n<p>Classification of the test substance in packing groups pursuant to UN transport law and categories pursuant to GHS<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Packing group I \/ category 1:<\/span> The mean burning rate of one of the test substance mixtures is greater than that of the 3:1 mixture of calcium peroxide and cellulose.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Packing group II \/ category 2:<\/span> The mean burning rate of one of the test substance mixtures is the same or greater than that of the 1:1 mixture of calcium peroxide and cellulose.
