Ignition of the test substance within 5 minutes after introduction was observed with each sample volume and with each test a minimum auto-ignition temperature was obtained. The maximum deviation between the three values was < 10°C. According to the guidelines, no further testing was required.
The lowest temperature at which ignition of the test substance occurred was 215°C, which is also the auto-ignition temperature if rounded down to the nearest 5°C.
Description of key information
Auto-ignition temperature: 215 °C
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 215 °C
Additional information
The auto-ignition temperature of C10-DMA was determined in two reliable guideline studies, yielding identical results:
The study by NOTOX (2010) was performed according to EU method A.15, DIN method 51794 and IEC standard 79-4. A commercially available auto-ignition temperature apparatus was used for the determination of the degree of auto-ignitability of the substance. The test substance is auto-ignitable with an auto-ignition temperature of 215 °C.
Siemens (2011) performed the study on the auto-ignition temperature of C10-DMA according to the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A.15. A value of 215 °C was determined for the auto-ignition temperature.
