Description of key information
Auto flammability [tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol]: 282±5°C (EU Method A.15)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 282 °C
Additional information
A measured auto flammability of 282±5°C was determined for the substance in accordance with EU Method A.15 and in compliance with GLP. The result is considered to be reliable and was selected as key study. This value is supported by auto flammability value of 282°C which was reported for the substance in secondary sources to which reliability could not be assigned. Also, in another secondary source, auto ignition temperatures of 273°C in air and 282°C in oxygen were reported for the substance.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
