- Expiry date: 2010-08-13 - Key result
- Auto-ignition temperature:
- 415 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 1 016.4 hPa
- Auto-ignition temperature:
- 420 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 1 016.4 hPa
- Remarks on result:
- preliminary test
- Conclusions:
- The auto-ignition temperature of Propyl (S)-lactate is 415 °C at 1016.4 hPa.
- Executive summary:
In a GLP study, the auto-ignition temperature of Propyl (S)-lactate was tested according to EU method A.15, DIN 51794 and IEC standard 79-4. The test substance is auto-ignitable with an auto-ignition temperature of 415 °C
at 1016.4 hPa.
Reference
Three tests were performed, each in triplicate, varying the amount of test item introduced into the auto-ignition chamber. The reported auto-ignition temperature is the lowest temperature at which auto-ignition was recorded (rounded).
Detailled tables are provided in the main report. The lowest temperature at which ingnition of the test substance occurred was 415 °C. The maximum deviation between the three tests was < 20 °C and no further testing was required (in compliance with the guidelines).
Description of key information
In a GLP study, the auto-ignition temperature of Propyl (S)-lactate was tested according to EU method A.15, DIN 51794 and IEC standard 79-4. The test substance is auto-ignitable with an auto-ignition temperature of 415 °C.
at 1016.4 hPa.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 415 °C
Additional information
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).
