ca. 294 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 100.6 kPa
Key result
Relative self-ignition temperature:
ca. 294 °C

Remarks:
at atm. press. of ca.100.6 kPa

After the experiment according to the A16 method the cube was empty. An amber coloured liquid was observed on the base of the oven.

Conclusions:
The test substance has been determined to have an auto-ignition temperature of 294 +/- 5°C.
The test substace has been determined not to have a relative self-ignition temperature below its melting temperature.
