Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases))
Deviations:
no

no
Specific details on test material used for the study:
SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Identity: FAT 92349/B TE
- Source and lot No.of test material: Lot. 26/2014(Thailand)
Key result
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 550 °C
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions
Conclusions:
No definite auto-ignition temperature for the test substance could be determined as no auto-ignition occurred till 550 °C
Executive summary:

The auto-ignition temperature of the test item was determined in a study conducted according to the EU Method A.15 using apparatus designed as per DIN 51794. The auto-ignition temperature, as obtained by this method, is the minimum ambient temperature expressed in °C at which a certain volume of a substance ignites under defined conditions. The temperature of the oven and the sample were continuously recorded while the temperature of the oven was increased to approximately 550 °C at a rate of about 3- 5 °C/min. Then the test item is given drop by drop with pipette by cylinder hole into Erlenmeyer flask, till the self ignition was spotted. The test item did not show auto-ignition till 550 °C. Hence, no definite auto-ignition temperature for the test substance could be determined as no auto-ignition occurred till 550 °C.
