+ positive response (flame, blast or deflagration)
- negative response (nothing or smoke only in 300 s period).
The lowest temperature giving a positive effect was 200 °C. The injected volume was 200 µL, the ignition delay was 64 s. At a temperature of 195 °C no ignition was observed.
Description of key information
Autoignition temperature: 200 °C ± 10 °C (EU method A15)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 195 °C
Additional information
Givaudan (2011) determined that the autoignition temperature of the substance was 200 °C ± 10 °C using EU method A15, DIN 51794. The lowest temperature giving a positive effect was 200 °C. At a temperature of 195 °C, no ignition was observed. For the purpose of the "key value for chemical safety assessment", the lower value of 195 °C has been used.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
