other: assume standard atmospheric pressure (measured at Stamford, CT, USA)

The exotherm delay before a flash was noted was 24 seconds.

Conclusions:
Under the study conditions, the auto-ignition temperature for the test substance was found to be 401°C.


Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the self-ignition temperature of the test substance according to guideline ASTM E-659. Under the study conditions, the auto-ignition temperature for the test substance was found to be 401°C (Sohar, 2012).

Description of key information

The auto-ignition temperature of the test substance was determined according to guideline ASTM E-659 (Sohar, 2012).

Key value for chemical safety assessment
