Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
 Auto-ignition temperature of Tetrahydro Citral: 200±10°C
Executive summary:

The Auto-ignition temperature of Tetrahydro Citral was determined in a SUR BERLIN oven, equipped with a 250 ml glass ignition vessel according to the DIN 51794.

The lowest temperature giving a positive effect was 204°C. The injected volume was 100µl, the ignition delay was 16 s. At a temperature of 199°C no ignition was observed.

Therefore, after rounding-off to the next-lower multiple of 5°C:

 Auto-ignition temperature of Tetrahydro Citral: 200±10°C
