Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 05 March 1993
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Relative self-ignition temperature:
- 230 °C
- Conclusions:
- Self ignition was registered at a temperature of 230°C in a warm storage test in a wire basket.
- Executive summary:
Study was conducted according to in-house safety standards, using the DTA.
A small exotherm reaction of the test substance occurs at a temperature of about 160°C, followed the main exothermic reaction at the temperature of 260°C.
Self ignition was registered from a temperature of 260°C. The test substance is considered to have the a potential to auto-ignite.
