Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2009
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: The EC method described in 440/2008 was followed, but the description of the method is poor.
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- reference to same study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
- Deviations:
- not specified
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Relative self-ignition temperature:
- > 400 °C
- Remarks on result:
- other:
- Remarks:
- at atm. press. of 1.0 atm
- Executive summary:
No self-ignition of melamine was detected up to 400 °C.
Reference
The sample melts at 361 °C, see section 4.2. Below this temperature and up to 400 °C there is no self-ignition of the sample.
Description of key information
The self ignition temperature in the key study was determined to >400 °C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
No self ignition was observed in three studies.
The key study is the most recent study and was performed according to the current EU-guideline.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
