Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 23 January - 9 March 2018 [several physical-chemical studies]
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Remarks:
- Good quality study, conducted to GLP.
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Relative self-ignition temperature:
- > 400 °C
- Remarks on result:
- no self ignition observed under the test conditions
- Conclusions:
- in a guideline GLP study, anhydrous calcium nitrite was found not to self-ignite below 400°C.
- Executive summary:
In an EU Method A.16 study, conducted according to GLP, anhydrous calcium nitrite showed no signs of self-ignition at up to 400°C.
Reference
There was an endothermic reaction of the test item from approximately 100°C, consistent with the presence of water, but no evidence of self-ignition below 400°C.
Description of key information
In an EU Method A.16 study, conducted according to GLP, anhydrous calcium nitrite showed no signs of self-ignition at up to 400°C (Sydney, 2018).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
