- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- BTS sample number: 120027
- Key result
- Auto-ignition temperature:
- 415 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 1 002 hPa
- Remarks on result:
- other: The result is not reported as the mean, but as the lowest value, where no ignition occurs.
- Conclusions:
- An auto-ignition temperature of 415 °C was measured at 1002 hPa.
- Executive summary:
According to EC Test Procedure A.15 'Auto-ignition temperature (liquids and gases)' an auto-ignition temperature of 415 °C was determined (1002 hPa).
Bearing in mind the significance of the ignition temperature for risk assessment, the result is not reported as the mean, but as the lowest value, where no ignition occurs.
Reference
The lowest result of an ignition was found in the main tests at 420 °C. The barometric pressure was 1002 hPa at the time of the test runs.
Description of key information
For methyl valerate an autoignition temperature of 415 °C was obtained at 1002 hPa.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 415 °C
Additional information
"Should read: 415 °C, measured at 1002 hPa"
