Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Reference
Endpoint:
relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
From September 13, 2017 to December 07, 2017
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
Deviations:
not specified
GLP compliance:
yes
Key result
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 400 °C
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions

Results

During the test, the test substance entered a shallow endothermic reaction at approximately 30°C and then rose up to 400°C into a very shallow exotherm but did not reach 400°C by self-heating. On completion of testing, a white solid residue remained. Based on the test results, the study author concluded that no self ignition was observed for the test substance under tested conditions.

Conclusions:
Under the study conditions, no self ignition was observed for the test substance.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the relative auto flammability of the test substance, mono- and di- C16 PSE, K+ and H3PO4 (purity: 100%), according to EU Method A.16, in compliance with GLP. During the study, the test substance entered a shallow endothermic reaction at approximately 30°C and then rose up to 400°C into a very shallow exotherm but did not reach 400°C by self-heating. On completion of testing, a white solid residue remained. Under the study conditions, the study author concluded that no self ignition was observed for the test substance (Chilworth, 2017).

Description of key information

The relative auto flammability of the test substance was determined according to EU Method A.16 (Chilworth, 2017).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Test substance did not reach 400°C by self-heating.
