- Conclusions:
- The test substance has an auto-ignition temperature of 195°C.
- Executive summary:
The substance auto-ignition temperature was tested according to the Regulation EC no. 440/2008 Method A.15 Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases) and DIN 51794 (2003): Determination of Ignition Temperature.
Preliminary test: Started at a temperature of approx. 200°C.At this temperature 5 drops of test item were added to the Erlenmeyer flask and it was checked if ignition occurs using a small mirror. Any type of flame within 5 minutes after addition will be counted as ignition. In case of an ignition the temperature was reduced by approx. 10K to narrow down the temperature where an ignition occurred up to a temperature of 650°C, the main test had not been performed. The lowest ignition temperature found in the preliminary test was used as start temperature for the main test. The atmospheric pressure during the tests was recorded.
Main test: Started at the lowest auto-ignition temperature found in the preliminary test, then decreased at 3K intervals, and repeated until no ignition was observed. At this temperature, the number of drops of test item added to the Erlenmeyer flask was varied (1 -10 drops). Further tests were carried out at a variety of of temperatures, and number of drops in the range where the test item ignited and just short of ignition.
The test substance has an auto-ignition temperature of 195°C.
Reference
The preliminary test is shown in Table 1. 5 drops of test material were put into the Erlenmeyer flask at each temperature. The results from the main test, where the lowest temperature at which ignition occurred, are shown in Table 2.
Based on the results of the main test series, the lowest auto-ignition temperature was 197°C. This was rounded down to the nearest multiple of 5°C, to 195 °C.
