The cube contained a grey solid.

The test item has been determined to have a relative self-ignition temperature of 148 ± 5°C.

Conclusions:
The test item has been determined to have a relative self-ignition temperature of 148 ± 5°C.
Executive summary:

The test item was heated in an oven and the relative self ignition temperature determined. Testing was conducted using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A.16 Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.

The test item has been determined to have a relative self-ignition temperature of 148 ± 5 °C.

Description of key information

The test item has been determined to have a relative self-ignition temperature of 148 ± 5°C (EU Method A16).

Additional information

The key study (Tremain & Atwal, 2010) was conducted according to EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids) and GLP. A reliability rating of 1 was assigned to this study, according to the criteria of Klimisch, 1997

Supporting information in the form of an Atofina safety data sheet (2000) was available and the auto-ignition temperature of dibutyltin oxide was determined to be 535 ºF. A reliability rating of 4 was assigned as safety data sheets are secondary source information.
