Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

Key result

Remarks on result:

no self-ignition observed up to the melting point

Remarks:

The temperature of the sample did not reach 400°C by increasing the temperature of the oven to around 325°C and therefore no relative self-ignition temperature was measured. Fumes were observed from 140°C. The wire mesh cube and the test item were visually checked after the determination. Test item was left in the wire mesh cube at the end of the measurement. The remaining test item was degraded.

Conclusions:

The temperature of the sample did not reach 400°C by increasing the temperature of the oven to around 325°C and therefore no relative self-ignition temperature was measured.
Fumes were observed from 140°C. The wire mesh cube and the test item were visually checked after the determination. Test item was left in the wire mesh cube at the end of the measurement. The remaining test item was degraded.

Executive summary:

The purpose of this test was to provide preliminary information on the auto-flammability of the test item RED HF2 at elevated temperatures.

The temperature of the sample did not reach 400°C by increasing the temperature of the oven to around 325°C and therefore no relative self-ignition temperature was measured.
Fumes were observed from 140°C. The wire mesh cube and the test item were visually checked after the determination. Test item was left in the wire mesh cube at the end of the measurement. The remaining test item was degraded.

Description of key information

The temperature of the sample did not reach 400°C by increasing the temperature of the oven to around 325°C and therefore no relative self-ignition temperature was measured.

No relative self-ignition was recorded as no ignition occurred up to the degradation of the test item in the wire mesh cube.
