Results and discussion

Relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Key result
Remarks on result:
no self-ignition observed up to the melting point

Any other information on results incl. tables

The test item was a blue crystalline solid. Whilst heating the test item, no relevant exothermic reaction/self-heating of the sample was observed. The temperature/time curve is attached as Figure 1. On completion of the test, the test item was a light blue fused solid.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test item was determined not to have a relative self-ignition temperature below its melting temperature.
