Reference
Endpoint:
relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
From June 21st to June 22nd, 2001
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Key result
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 400 °C

The substance showed no relevant exothermic reactions. At the end of the test the substance was run out of the sample cube due to melting and was coloured black.

Conclusions:
The substance did not show any sign of self-ignition. Therefore, it is not auto-flammable.
Executive summary:

The relative self-ignition temperature of the substance was evaluated in a study according to EU method A.16.

Test sample did not show any sign of self-ignition when heated up to 400 °C using a thermocouple.

Therefore, the substance can be considered not auto-flammable.

Description of key information

In a study according to EU method A.16, the relative self-ignition temperature of the substance was found to be higher than 400 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
400 °C
