- Executive summary:
A study was conducted according to Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 Part A.15 and DIN 51794 to determine the auto-ignition temperature of the test substance. A series of preliminary tests with the test item were performed. The expected auto-ignition temperature was set at 150 °C. The oven was heated and ignition trials were started 100 °C below the expected ignition temperature. Trials were continued up to 250 °C. Three other pre-tests were performed up to 650 °C.In neither of the preliminary tests the test item ignited. Therefore, the test item has no auto-ignition temperature up to 650 °C at atmospheric pressure.
Reference
Five pre-tests were performed under atmospheric pressure.
Table 1. Results from the preliminary test
| Start temperature (°C) | End temperature (°C) | Result |
| 50 | 250 | did not ignite |
| 250 | 450 | did not ignite |
| 450 | 650 | did not ignite |
| 450 | 650 | did not ignite |
| 450 | 650 | did not ignite |
Description of key information
The test item did not ignite up to the temperature of 650 °C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
