Key result
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 420 °C
Remarks on result:
no self-ignition observed up to the melting point

The test substance exhibited a melting range starting at about 45 °C. No exothermic effects were determined up to 420 °C in testing as specified in EC Guideline. The cube was empty at the end of the measurement.

Conclusions:
No self-ignition of the test item was observed up to the melting point.
Executive summary:

An experimental study was conducted to determine the auto-ignition temperature of the test item according to EU Method A.16. The test substance exhibited a melting range starting at about 45 °C. No exothermic effects were determined up to 420 °C. The cube was empty at the end of the measurement. Overall, no self-ignition of the test item was observed up to the melting point.

Description of key information
