Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

key study
Study period:
July from 18 to 24, 2018
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:

Specific details on test material used for the study:
The test item was used in its initial form.
Remarks on result:
no self-ignition observed up to the melting point
Remarks:
(at ca 260 °C)
Conclusions:
No self-ignition up to the melting point (ca 260 °C).
Executive summary:

The self-ignition potential of the test item was investigated in accordance with the EU method A.16. A certain volume of the test item under the assay was placed into an oven at ambient temperature; the temperature/time curve was recorded while the temperature of the oven was increased up to the melting point, at a rate of approximately 0.5 °C/min. For the purpose of this test, the temperature of the oven at which the sample temperature reaches 400 °C by self-heating is called the self-ignition temperature.

Three replicate tests were performed.

In the course of the study, the test item did not self-ignite up to the melting point. Thus, no self-ignition temperature could be stated.

Conclusion

No self-ignition up to the melting point (ca 260 °C).

Description of key information

No self-ignition up to the melting point (ca 260 °C).
