Storage: Room temperature

Remarks on result:

other: no self-heating behavior

In the temperature/time graph was no significant exothermic reaction. At the end of the test the basket was empty.

With respect to appendix 6, chapter 5.2.2 of UN-MTC there were no additional tests necessary.

Conclusions:

1,4-Dichloro-5,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone shows no self-heating behavior according to VDI guideline 2263.

Executive summary:

The test was performed as stipulated in UN-MTC procedure N.4.

As a screening test the Grewer oven test (VDI guideline 2263, part 1, 1990) was made.

The substance under test was placed in a wire basket with 8 ml volume in a tube shaped oven at room temperature. The oven was heated up with a rate of 0.5 K/min up to 420 °C. The temperature of the center of the sample and the temperature of an inert reference sample, which was placed in another tube of the same oven, were recorded. Both samples were vented with air with a rate of 20 L/h.

In the temperature/time graph was no significant exothermic reaction. At the end of the test the basket was empty.

With respect to appendix 6, chapter 5.2.2 of UN-MTC there were no additional tests necessary.
