Results and discussion

Auto-ignition temperature (liquids / gases)
Key result
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Remarks:
Pentyl valerate is not self-igniting. Decomposition temperature: 196.08 °C

Any other information on results incl. tables

During the DSC run an endothermic peak at 196.08°C and an exothermic event at 377.18 °C were observed.

It was determined that the test item is thermally stable between 20 °C and 196.08 °C

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Test item is thermally stable between 20 °C and 196.08 °C. Above decomposition occurs.
