- Endpoint:
- auto-ignition temperature (liquids)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 24 November 2015 to 6 September 2016
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases))
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Key result
- Auto-ignition temperature:
- 350 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 98.8 kPa
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the study, the auto-ignition temperature of the test material was determined to be 350 ± 4 °C
- Executive summary:
The auto flammability of the test material was investigated in a study which was performed under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guidelines EU Method A.15.
The apparatus consisted of an insulated, round bottomed, wide necked flask contained within an oven. A recording thermocouple, coupled to a chart recorder, was fitted to monitor the temperature of the flask interior. The required volume (initially 100µL
) of test substance was injected as droplets with a pipette into the centre of the flask, taking care to avoid wetting the walls of the flask during injection. The pipette was then withdrawn and the chart recorder started. The time when any flash or flame was observed was read from the chart trace, or the test was run for at least five minutes. The procedure was repeated at different temperatures and with different sample volumes until the minimum value of the ignition temperature was obtained. Between each test, the flask was flushed completely with clean dry nitrogen, and after flushing, a sufficient time interval was allowed before the next sample was injected to ensure that the flask contents re-equilibrated with air, and were stabilised at the desired temperature. The tests were made in appropriate temperature steps until the lowest temperature at when ignition occurs had been determined. The atmospheric pressure at the time of testing was 98.9 kPa.
Under the conditions of the study, the auto-ignition temperature of the test material was determined to be 350 ± 4 °C.
Reference
The auto-ignition temperature of the test material was found to be 350 ± 4 °C. The atmospheric pressure at the time of testing was 98.8 KPa.

Additional information
The auto flammability of the test material was investigated in a study which was performed under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guidelines EU Method A.15. The study was assigned a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the criteria for assessing data quality set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).
The apparatus consisted of an insulated, round bottomed, wide necked flask contained within an oven. A recording thermocouple, coupled to a chart recorder, was fitted to monitor the temperature of the flask interior. The required volume (initially 100µL
) of test substance was injected as droplets with a pipette into the centre of the flask, taking care to avoid wetting the walls of the flask during injection. The pipette was then withdrawn and the chart recorder started. The time when any flash or flame was observed was read from the chart trace, or the test was run for at least five minutes. The procedure was repeated at different temperatures and with different sample volumes until the minimum value of the ignition temperature was obtained. Between each test, the flask was flushed completely with clean dry nitrogen, and after flushing, a sufficient time interval was allowed before the next sample was injected to ensure that the flask contents re-equilibrated with air, and were stabilised at the desired temperature. The tests were made in appropriate temperature steps until the lowest temperature at when ignition occurs had been determined. The atmospheric pressure at the time of testing was 98.9 kPa.
Under the conditions of the study, the auto-ignition temperature of the test material was determined to be 350 ± 4 °C.
