Results and discussion

Relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 400 °C
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions

Any other information on results incl. tables

Under test conditions, no exotherm of sufficient magnitude to constitute a self ignition temperature is visible.Prior to heating,the test sample was a white powder. After heating,there was no residue within the sample holder, although a small quantity of charred black solid was present in the collection dish beneath the sample holder in the oven.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
On heating the test material to 400oC, no self ignition (autoflammability) was observed.
Executive summary:

The experimental procedure conformed to the requirements of EC Directive 92/69/EEC Method A16. No relative self-ignition (autoflammability) of Beta Ketosulfide was observed below 400oC.
