Reference
Endpoint:
relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
October 2005
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes
Key result
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 401 °C
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions
Conclusions:
No self-ignition was observed up to the maximum test temperature of 401 °C
Executive summary:

A study was conducted according to Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 Part A A.16 to determine the auto-ignition temperature of the test substance. The temperature/time curve relating to conditions in the centre of the sample is recorded while the temperature of the oven is increased to 400 °C at a rate of 0.5 °C/min. In the temperature range 20 - 401 °C no exothermal effect was observed. No self-ignition temperature was determined up 401 °C.

Description of key information

No self-ignition temperature was determined up to 400 °C (reference 4.12 -1)

Key value for chemical safety assessment
