Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2017-01-13 - 2017-04-04 (experimental)
- 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:
- May 31, 2008
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Key result
- Remarks on result:
- other: Exothermic effect of the test item by self-heating was observed at an oven temp. of 228°C. During this the test item reached a temp. of 389°C. According to the guideline, a test item is self-ignitable when the sample temp. reaches 400°C by self-heating.
- Conclusions:
- The GLP study was performed according to EU method A.16 without deviations and therefore reliability of Klimisch 1 has been assigned. The substance does not reach 400 °C by self-heating under the conditions of the test.
- Executive summary:
The auto ignition temperature of the test substance was determined in a GLP test according to EU method A.16.
An exothermic effect of the test item by self-heating was observed at an oven temperature of 228°C. During this effect the test item reached a temperature of 389°C. According to the guideline, a test item is self-ignitable when the sample temperature reaches 400°C by self-heating. Based on this the test item is considered ‘not self-ignitable’. After the experiment, the test item had turned into a charred black residue and was collected in a container that was placed below the cube. It indicated that the test item had been molten, decomposed and/or reacted during the experiment.

Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
