Executive summary:

Based on the read-across from the analogue substance d-limonene, the auto ignition temperature of 245 °C is estimated for l-limonene.

Description of key information

Key study: Read-across from the analogue substance d-limonene. Test method A.15. GLP study. Self-ignition temperature at atmospheric pressure : 245 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
245 °C

Additional information

The value for auto-flammability of l-limonene was derived from a well performed study, which was conducted according to EU A.15 guideline and under GLP to determine the self-ignition temperature of d-limonene. The result was considered as reliable without restriction and supported by other data from secondary literature which are in agreement with the key value.
