relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
12 April 2016 to 14 April 2016
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
Version / remarks:
2008
Deviations:
no

Key result
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions
Remarks:
up to 400 °C

- Three replicate tests were performed.

- The relative self-ignition temperature of the test material: No ignition was observed up to 400 °C.

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study, no ignition was observed up to 400 °C.
Executive summary:

The relative self-ignition temperature of the test material was investigated in accordance with the standardised guideline EU Method A.16, under GLP conditions.

A certain amount of the test material was placed in an oven at room temperature; the temperature difference/time curve was recorded while the temperature of the oven was increased to 400 °C at a rate of 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.

Under the conditions of this study, no ignition was observed up to 400 °C.

Description of key information

Under the conditions of this study, no ignition was observed up to 400 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The relative self-ignition temperature of the test material was investigated in accordance with the standardised guideline EU Method A.16, under GLP conditions. The study was awarded a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).

A certain amount of the test material was placed in an oven at room temperature; the temperature difference/time curve was recorded while the temperature of the oven was increased to 400 °C at a rate of 0.5 °C/min.
