Description of key information
Under the conditions of this study, no self-ignition of the test material was observed. The sample did not reach 400 °C by self-heating.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The auto flammability of the test material was investigated in a study which was performed in accordance with the standardised guideline EU Method A.15 under GLP conditions. The study was awarded a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).
The relative self-ignition temperature test for solids was performed in a temperature programmed oven of approximately 2 litres volume with natural air circulation. A stainless steel wire mesh, 20 mm test cube with 0.045 mm openings was filled with the test sample. The cube was then gently tapped and refilled until completely full. The sample temperature was monitored by a thermocouple placed in the centre of the test cube. Another thermocouple was placed between the test cube and the oven wall to monitor oven temperature. The temperature of the oven and the sample were continuously recorded while the temperature of the oven was increased to 400 °C or to the melting point of the solid, if lower, at a rate of 0.5 °C/min. The temperature of the oven at which the sample temperature reaches 400 °C by self-heating is called the self-ignition temperature.
Under the conditions of this study, no self-ignition of the test material was observed. The sample did not reach 400 °C by self-heating.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
