Key result
Auto-ignition temperature:
240 °C
Atm. press.:
>= 1 005.5 - <= 1 034.7 hPa

In three main tests, the lowest auto-ignition temperature of the substance was determined to be 241°C (see also summary table in the field 'Illustration').

After rounding to the next lower number divisible by 5, the auto-ignition temperature of the substance is concluded to be 240°C.

Conclusions:
The auto-ignition temperature of the substance was determined to be 240 °C (at 1005 - 1035 hPa).
Executive summary:

The auto-ignition temperature of the substance at 1005 - 1035 hPa was determined to be 240°C in a GLP study according to EC A.15 and DIN 51794:2003-05.

Description of key information

The auto-ignition temperature of the substance at 1005 - 1035 hPa was determined to be 240°C in a GLP study according to EC A.15 and DIN 51794:2003-05.
