The cube contained dark grey charred solid material.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

The test item has been determined not to have a relative self-ignition temperature below its melting temperature.

Executive summary:

The test item was heated in an oven and the relative self ignition temperature determined in study number 2517 -0001.  Testing was conducted using Method A16 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).

After the test, he cube contained dark grey charred solid material. The test item has been determined not to have a relative self-ignition temperature below its melting temperature.
