Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
auto-flammability
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
14-10-2013 to 01-11-2013
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Method equivalent to guideline or national standards with acceptable deviations.
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases))
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
DIN 51794 (Testing of mineral oil hydrocarbons - Determination of ignition temperature)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
no
Auto-ignition temperature:
> 250 °C
Atm. press.:
1 atm
Remarks on result:
other: > 250 ± 5 °C; Atmospheric pressure: 97.7 kPa (or 977 mbar)
Conclusions:
The auto-ignition temperature was determined to be > 250 ± 5 °C.
Executive summary:

The auto-ignition temperature was determined using a method eq. or similar to EU Method A.15 and according to DIN 51794. The auto-ignition temperature is the lowest temperature at which the test item will ignite when mixed with air under the conditions defined in the test method. The auto-ignition temperature was determined to be > 250 ± 5 °C. Applicant assessment indicates: the test item was a technical grade of substance however, should serve as an acceptable lower limit value for Auto-Ignition Temperature.

Description of key information

Auto-ignition temperature: > 250 ± 5 °C at 1 atmosphere, eq. or similar to EU Method A.15, 2013

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
392 °C
