Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

- Key result
- Relative self-ignition temperature:
- > 171 °C
- Remarks on result:
- no self-ignition observed up to the melting point
- Conclusions:
- No self-ignition was observed up to the melting point (171 °C).
Reference
There was no abrupt rise in the temperature of the sample cube up to the temperature of 171 °C (its melting point). The relative self-ignition temperature of DPX-C (Di-Cloro-Di-p-Xililene) is above its melting point.
For confirm the relative self-ignition, oven temperature was increased up to 195 °C and corresponding sample temperature was 180 °C. At 180 °C temperature fumes was generated in sample cup and experiment was stopped it was concluded that DPX-C does not relatively self-ignite below its melting point.
Description of key information
No self-ignition was observed up to the melting point (171 °C).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
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). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
