Results and discussion

Relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 420 °C
Remarks on result:
other:
Remarks:
at atm. press. of 715.0 mm Hg

Any other information on results incl. tables

Smoke was recorded 8 hours after the start of the study. No auto-flammability reaction was recorded between 17 °C and 420 °C. The test was performed a second time and the result confirmed the first test.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
No auto-flammability reaction of the test substance was recorded with respect to the operating conditions used.
Executive summary:

In a general physico-chemical properties study (D022), the substance was shown to not be auto-flammable under the test conditions based on Method A16 of Commission Directive 92/69 EEC.
