experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Remarks:

Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ASTM E659 (Standard test method for autoignition temperature of liquid chemicals)
GLP compliance:
no
Key result
Auto-ignition temperature:
238 °C
Atm. press.:
101.3 kPa
Conclusions:
An auto-ignition temperature value of 238°C at 1013 hPa was determined for the substance in a reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol. No further details are available.

Description of key information

Auto-ignition temperature: 238°C at 1013 hPa (ASTM E659-79)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
238 °C

Additional information

A measured auto-ignition temperature value of 238°C at 1013 hPa was determined for the submission substance using a relevant test method in accordance with ASTM E659-79 but not in compliance with GLP. The result is considered to be reliable and is selected as key study.

The key study is supported by another measured auto-ignition temperature value of 324°C at 1013 hPa using a relevant test method.

In available secondary sources to which reliability could not be assigned, auto-ignition temperature values of 225°C and 230°C were reported for the substance.
