- Executive summary:
Introduction
The autoignition temperature of the test substance was assessed using the procedure described in EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A15.
Method
The test covers the determination of hot and cool flame autoignition temperatures of a liquid chemical in air at atmospheric pressure in a uniformly heated vessel.
A small, metered sample of the product to be tested is inserted into a uniformly heated 500 ml glass flask containing air at a predetermined temperature. The contents of the flask are observed in a dark environment for 10 minutes following insertion of the sample, or until autoignition occurs.
Results and Conclusion
The autoignition temperature of the test substance was determined to be 338°C.
Reference
No cool flames were observed. Ignition produced an orange flame and an orange/green flame.
Description of key information
Self-ignition temperature of the test substance.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 338 °C
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
