Reference
Endpoint:
auto-flammability
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
3rd to 8th July 2010
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases))
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Key result
Auto-ignition temperature:
227 - 237 °C
Atm. press.:
101.42 - 102.03 kPa

The test item has been determined to have an auto-ignition temperature of 232 ± 5 °C.

Room temperature: 20.8 to 21.6 °C

Atmospheric pressure: 101.42 to 102.03 kPa

Conclusions:
The test item has been determined to have an auto-ignition temperature of 232 ± 5 °C.
Executive summary:

The auto-ignition temperature was determined by heating aliquots of the test item in a flask and observing for any ignition. Testing was conducted using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A.15 Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.

The test item has been determined to have an auto-ignition temperature of 232 ± 5 °C.

Description of key information

The auto-ignition temperature was determined by heating aliquots of the test item in a flask and observing for any ignition. Testing was conducted using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A.15 Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.

The test item has been determined to have an auto-ignition temperature of 232 ± 5 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
232 °C

Additional information

The key study for the determination of the auto-ignition temperature was performed to EU method A.15 in compliance with GLP. A reliability rating of 1 was assigned to this study, according to the criteria of Klimisch et al. (1997).

The test item has been determined to have an auto-ignition temperature of 232 ± 5 °C.
