Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
21 July 2010 to 20 January 2011
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: GLP study conducted in accordance with an internationally recognised method
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Remarks on result:
other: There was no evidence of self-ignition below 400°C.

The temperature of the test sample did not deviate from the furnace temperature during the range room temperature to 400°C. Therefore there was no evidence of self-ignition below 400°C.

Conclusions:
MPP was found not to self-ignite below 400°C.

Description of key information

MPP was found not to self-ignite below 400°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

MPP is negative in an EU test A16. This test is not comparable to the UN test N.4 required for classification but the fact that the in test A.16 the result was negative with the sample temperature not deviating at all from the oven temperature, combined with the fact that the technical function of the substance is to act a fire retardant, it can be concluded beyond any reasonable doubt that MPP should not be classified as self-heating.
