- Purity: not specified
Key result
Auto-ignition temperature:
369 °C
Remarks on result:
other: No data on atmospheric pressure
Conclusions:
The auto-ignition temperature of Bis(2-chloroethyl) ether is 369°C.
Executive summary:

According to this peer-reviewed publication, the auto-ignition temperature of Bis(2-chloroethyl) ether is 369°C.

The reliability of this data is considered to be low as no methodological information is provided in the original publication.

Description of key information

In a pre-GLP publication from the Mellon Institute of Industrial Research, the auto-flammability temperature of Bis(2-chloroethyl) ether is reported to be 369°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
369 °C

Additional information

A single publication was found to report data on the auto-flamambility of Bis(2-chloroethyl) ether. In a pre-GLP publication from the Mellon Institute of Industrial Research, the auto-flammability temperature of Bis(2-chloroethyl) ether is reported to be 369°C. The publication does not report any information regarding the method used to obtain this data. While this data originates from a peer-reviewed publication, the lack of details does not allow to judge the reliability of this estimate. Accordingly, this data has been assigned a reliability score of 4.
