Specific details on test material used for the study:
SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source and lot/batch No.of test material:
13502 or 13995
- Expiration date of the lot/batch:
19 December 2020

STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material:
At room temperature
Relative self-ignition temperature:
390 °C

A small exothermic effect of the test item by self-heating was observed at an oven temperature of 262°C. During this effect the test item reached a temperature of 329°C.

A strong exothermic effect of the test item was observed. The temperature of the test item reached 400°C at an oven temperature of 390°C. It demonstrated that the self-ignition temperature of the test item is 390°C.

After the experiment, the test item had turned into a charred residue. It indicated that the test item had decomposed and/or reacted during the experiment.

Conclusions:
The self-ignition temperature of calcium azelate is 390°C.
Executive summary:

A study to determine the self-ignition temperature of calcium azelate was conducted according to EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids).

The self-ignition temperature of the test item was determined to be 390°C. It was observed that the test item had turned into a charred residue after the test, which indicated that the test item had decomposed and/or reacted during the experiment.

The study was conducted according to standard guidelines and is GLP-compliant and therefore is considered as reliable without restrictions.

Description of key information

The self-ignition temperature of the test item was determined to be 390°C. Moreover, it was observed that test item had turned into a charred residue after the test, which indicated that the test item had decomposed and/or reacted during the experiment.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
390 °C

Additional information

A study to determine the self-ignition temperature of calcium azelate was conducted according to EU Method A.16 (Volic 2019).

The study was conducted according to standard guidelines and is GLP-compliant and therefore is considered as reliable without restrictions (Klimisch 1).
