Reference

Endpoint:

auto-ignition temperature (liquids)

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

July 16 - October 13, 2007

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

Principles of method if other than guideline:

Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN), DIN Guide 51794: "Determining the Ignition Temperature of Petroleum Products", May 2003. International Electrotechnical Commision (IEC), IEC standard 79-4: "Electrical Apparatus for Explosive Gas Atmospheres, Part 4, Method of Test for Ignition Temperature", 1975.

yes

Key result

Auto-ignition temperature:

395 °C

Atm. press.:

> 1 003.2 - < 1 007.7 hPa

Commercially available auto-ignition temperatures apparatus
was used for the determination of the degree of auto-
ignitability. The test substance is auto-ignitable with an
auto-ignition temperature at 1003.2 - 1007.7 hPa of 395°C.

Conclusions:

Commercially available auto-ignition temperatures apparatus was used for the determination of the degree of auto- ignitability. The test substance is auto-ignitable with an auto-ignition temperature at 1003.2 - 1007.7 hPa of 395°C.

Description of key information

The study was performed according to EU method A.15 and GLP principles.
