Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key result
Remarks on result:
no self-ignition observed up to the melting point

Three replicate tests were performed. The test item did not self-ignite up to the melting point (range of 204 to 205 °C according to literature).

Conclusions:
No self-ignition temperature could be stated up to the melting point.
Executive summary:

A study was performed according to Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, method A.16 in order to determine the relative self-ignition temperature of the solid test item by using an auto-ignition temperature tester ZPA 3. The oven was heated from ambient temperature to 210 °C with a rate of about 0.6 °C/min (temperature of test item increased by about 0.5 °C/min). No self-ignition of the test item could be stated up to the melting point of the test item (melting range 204 to 205 °C according to literature). Thus, no self-ignition temperature was determined.

Description of key information

No self-ignition temperature could be stated up to the melting point.

Additional information

A study was performed according to Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, method A.16 in order to determine the relative self-ignition temperature of the solid test item by using an auto-ignition temperature tester ZPA 3. The oven was heated from ambient temperature to 210 °C with a rate of about 0.6 °C/min (temperature of test item increased by about 0.5 °C/min). No self-ignition of the test item could be stated up to the melting point of the test item (melting range 204 to 205 °C according to literature). Thus, no self-ignition temperature was determined (reference 4.12-1).
