Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Endpoint:
relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
1985
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
no
Relative self-ignition temperature:
70 °C
Remarks on result:

Remarks:
at atm. press. of 1.0 atm

The substance shows self-ignition at 70 °C. The temperature rises to 210 °C. The substance is not self-ignitible in the sense of EU A.16, because the temperature does not reach 400 °C. But according to BAM, Fachgruppe 4, such temperature increase proves self-ignition properties.

Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

GLP compliance:
no
Relative self-ignition temperature:
90 - 100 °C
Remarks on result:
other: pressure: assumed
Remarks:
at atm. press. of ca.1.0 atm

The substance ignites at 90 degrees. There is no information given, whether the temperature rises to 400 °C.

Conclusions:
It cannot be decided on the base of the given data, whether the substance is self-ignitible according to A.16

Description of key information

70 °C at 1 atm.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
70 °C

Additional information

The substance shows self-ignition starting 70 °C. The temperature rises to 210 °C. The substance is not self-ignitible in the sense of EU A.16, because the temperature does not reach 400 °C. But according to the German Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM, Federal Institute for Materials research and testing) group 4, such temperature increase proves self-ignition properties.
