Description of key information
The auto-ignition temperature of the test material was determined in a GLP compliant study performed to EU method A.15. The test material was found to have an auto-ignition temperature of 394 ± 5 °C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 394 °C
Additional information
Atwal et al (2010), the key study for the determination of the
auto-ignition temperature of the test material was performed to EU
method A.15 in compliance with GLP.
A reliability rating of 1 was assigned to this study, according to the criteria of Klimisch, 1997.
