Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
test procedure in accordance with generally accepted scientific standards and described in sufficient detail
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: VDI 2263 Sheet 1 Grewer Oven
Version / remarks:

In the investigation of self-ignition in the Grewer Oven the pure test item showed a self-heating starting at 205 °C to a maximum temperature of 365 °C. After having cooled down to 270 °C, the pure test item underwent another self-heating to 375 °C which proceeded relatively slowly compared to the first self-heating. After the measurement a black powder remained in the basket.

The test item in mixture with Kieselguhr showed a self-heating starting at 205 °C to a maximum temperature of 410 °C. After having cooled down to 270 °C, the test item in mixture with Kieselguhr underwent another self-heating to 375 °C which proceeded relatively slowly compared to the first self-heating. After the measurement a grey powder remained in the basket.

Experiment Onset self-ignition / °C Maximum temperature / °C
Pure test item 205 365
Test item in mixture with Kieselguhr (1:1) 205 410
Conclusions:
Self-heating at atmospheric pressure starting at 205 °C.
Executive summary:

The self-heating potential of the substance was evaluated by an experiment conducted in accordance with VDI 2263 Sheet 1 Grewer Oven test method.

The pure test item indicated a self-heating at atmospheric pressure starting at a temperature of 205 °C, which led to a maximum temperature of 365 °C. In mixture with Kieselguhr, the test item indicated a self-heating at atmospheric pressure starting at a temperature of 205 °C, which led to a maximum temperature of 410 °C.

Conclusion

Self-heating at atmospheric pressure starting at 205 °C.

Description of key information

Self-heating at atmospheric pressure starting at 205 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
205 °C
