Auto flammability
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- auto-ignition temperature (liquids)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- From 01 to 15 February 2006
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Remarks:
- Compliant with Method A15 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC. Purity and isomers composition specified.
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases))
- Version / remarks:
- Directive 92/69/EEC
- Deviations:
- no
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- IEC 60079-4 (Electrical apparatus for explosive gas atmospheres. Part 4: Method of test for ignition temperature)
- Version / remarks:
- Anon (1987), Electrical Apparatus for Explosive Gas Atmospheres. Part 4: Method of Test for
Ignition Temperature. lEe Publications 79-4, Pl-19. - GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Remarks:
- UK GLP Compliance Programme (inspected on August 30, 2005 / signed on November 21, 2005)
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- - Storage condition of test material: approximately 4°C in the dark under nitrogen
- Auto-ignition temperature:
- ca. 256 °C
- Atm. press.:
- >= 98.8 - <= 102.31 kPa
- Conclusions:
- This parameter/method is not relevant for classification, however the information is useful regarding process safety and potential additional fire hazard.
No particular hazard is anticipated in normal conditions of storage. - Executive summary:
The auto-ignition temperature of the test substance was measured under GLP according to IEC 79-4 method (listed in EU A15 guideline).
The auto-ignition temperature was determined by heating aliquots of the test material in a flask and observing for any ignition.
The test material has been determined to have an auto-ignition temperature of 256 ± 5°C at atmospheric pressure.

Additional information
A fully reliable experimental study, conducted according to a recognized IEC/EU method and under GLP, is available. It is considered as a key study. The result is retained as key data.
This parameter is not relevant for classification, however the information is useful regarding process safety and potential additional fire hazard.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
