other: UN no. ST/SG/AC.10/11/Rev.4, test N.4, 2003

Principles of method if other than guideline:

As from 1 December 2010, the above guideline is superior to the methods proposed in Annex V, this property has already been studied according to the newest guideline refering to the self-heating temperature instead of the self-ignition temperature.
The self-heating temperature of this substance was determined by Test 1 of the Modified Bowes-Cameron Cage test.

Any other information on results incl. tables

No exothermic effect of the test substance was observed. It demonstrated that the test substance is 'not a self-heating substance'. According to the guideline, no further testing was required.

After the experiment, the test substance had turned into a yellow molten residue and was collected in a container that was placed below the cube. It indicated that the test substance had been molten during the experiment.
