Reference
Endpoint:
relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
03 April 2017 to 07 April 2017
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

Key result
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions
Remarks:
(up to 200 °C)

No ignition was observed up to 200 °C.

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the study no relative self-ignition temperature of the test material was observed up to 200 °C.
Executive summary:

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

A stainless steel wire mesh cube (20 mm x 20 mm) was filled with the test material, the cube was then suspended in the centre of the oven at room temperature. One thermocouple was placed at the centre of the cube and the other between the cube and the oven wall to determine the temperature difference of the sample and the oven. The temperature difference of the oven and sample were continuously recorded while the temperature of the oven was increased at a rate of 0.5 °C/min.

The experiment was repeated three times at about 97.7 – 97.9 kPa atmospheric pressure.

Under the conditions of the study no relative self-ignition temperature of the test material was observed up to 200 °C.

Description of key information

Under the conditions of the study no relative self-ignition temperature of the test material was observed up to 200 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The relative self-ignition temperature of the test material was determined 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).
