Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
Justification for type of information:
Reliable experimentation to assess melting point
Slow decomposition observed with no indication of self ignition or exotherm
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
reference to same study
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Version / remarks:
Following melting point guidelines
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Samples heated in air to observe melting or decomposition
GLP compliance:
no
Key result
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 400 °C
Conclusions:
Experience from manufacture and use suggest that there is no specific melting point and instead the substance will start to oxidise at high temperatures. This absence of dangerous exotherm on heating was confirmed by heating to 400 C .
When heating, there is no indication of exothermic reaction or ignition.

Description of key information

Experience from manufacture and use suggest that there is no specific melting point and instead the substance will start to oxidise at high temperatures. This absence of dangerous exotherm on heating was confirmed by heating to 400 C .

When heating, there is no indication of exothermic reaction or ignition.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
