Pre-Determination

The ignition attempts of the pre-determination program are presented in the following table

Selected T*	T Vessel	Drops used	Ignition?	Observations
°C	°C	#	yes/no
300	200.3	5	no	-
300	220.1	5	no	-
300	244.3	5	no	fume
300	270.1	5	no	fume
300	297.3	5	no	fume
300	319.3	5	no	fume
300	342.7	5	no	fume
300	366.0	5	no	fume
300	388.6	5	no	fume
500	410.2	5	yes	Ignition after 153 s, flame

*The temperature was selected at the ZPA3 corresponding to an initial oven temperature of 200 °C. As the test item showed no ignition at 388.6 °C, a higher temperature was selected for the subsequent ignition trials (corresponding to a new initial oven temperature of 400 °C). Using a constant heating rate, the subsequent ignition trials were conducted every 20 ± 5 K.

Main study

Lowest Values Main Study

Experiment	Value	Ignition delay	Drops used
First Experiment	368 °C	20 s	8
Second Experiment	353 °C	16 s	12
Third Experiment	353 °C	27 s	12

The lowest value of the auto-ignition temperature is 353 °C. This value was determined using 12 drops test item. The test item showed auto-ignition after 16 and after 27 seconds. The auto-ignition temperature (result of determination) is the lowest value from the lowest values of the three experiments, rounded down to a whole multiple of 5 °C. Therefore, the auto-ignition temperature is stated as 350 °C.

Conclusions:

The auto-ignition temperature of Incozol 4 was determined to be 350 °C at 1013.25 hPa.

Executive summary:

A study was to determine the auto-ignition temperature of Incozol 4 according to Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.15 and DIN 51794. Three independent determinations were conducted. The auto-ignition temperature was determined to be 368 °C, 353 °C and 353 °C, respectively. According to the criteria as laid down in DIN 51794 the auto-ignition temperatureis the lowest value from three experiments, rounded down to a whole multiple of 5 °C. Therefore, the auto-ignition temperature is stated as 350 °C at 1001 .67 hPa. The three lowest values of the main study lay within a range of 20 K. No observations were made which might cause doubts concerning the validity of the study outcome. Thus, the validation criteria were fulfilled.
