Description of key information
The self-ignition temperature of DL-Menthol was determined according to EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases)) to be 265 °C at 1019 hPa. It was assumed that the reported atmospheric pressure shows no significant discrepancy to the normal pressure at 1013 hPa.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 265 °C
Additional information
Another study determined the self-ignition temperature of raw Menthol according to EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases)) as 260 °C at 1014 hPa (Currenta, 2010).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
