Reference
Endpoint:
relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
From September 06, 2000 to September 11, 2000
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes
Key result
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 401 °C
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions
Remarks:
at atm. press. of 101.325 Pa

In the temperature range of 22- 401 °C, no exothermal effect was observed.

Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, no self ignition was registered until a temperature of 401 °C.
Executive summary:

A study was performed to determine self ignition temperature of test substance according to EU Method A.16.in compliance with GLP.

8 cm3 (2.4 g) of the substance under test is placed in an oven at 22 °C; the temperature/time curve relating to conditions in the centre of the sample is recorded while the temperature of the oven is increased to 400 °C at a rate of 0.5°C /min.

No exothermal effect of the test substance was observed in the temperature range of 22 -401 °C.

Under the test conditions, no self ignition was registered until a temperature of 401 °C.

Description of key information

Self ignition of the test substance was not registered until a temperature of 401 °C. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment
