Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

Self-ignition is not considered to be of relevance for this substance, since this would require heat to be developed either by reaction of this substance with oxygen or by exothermic decomposition and which is not lost rapidly enough to the surroundings (cf. Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment Chapter R.7a: Endpoint specific guidance (July 2017) section R.7.1.12.2). Mill scale is not auto-flammable in air.
Therefore it is intrinsically non-combustible and can safely be assumed not to be ignitable under the conditions given in EU-Method A.16. In conclusion, the conduct of further experimental verification is not considered to be required.
