Conclusions:
The test material has been determined o have an auto-ignition temperature of 378±5ºC
Executive summary:

The auto-ignition temperature was determined by heating aliquouts of the test material in a flask and observing for any ignition. Testing was conducted using Method A15. The test material has been determined o have an auto-ignition temperature of 378±5ºC.
