Results and discussion

Auto-ignition temperature (liquids / gases)
Remarks on result:
other: Not flammable at room temperature (32 deg C) and 960 hPa
Relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Remarks on result:
other: Not flammable at room temperature (32 deg C) and 960 hPa

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Self ignition temperature is the lowest temperature determined at which substance vaporizes to form an ignitable mixture in air. thus in this case, 4 -nitro-o-xylene is not autoflammable at 32 deg C and 960 hPa.
Executive summary:

Self ignition temperature is the lowest temperature determined at which substance vaporizes to form an ignitable mixture in air. thus in this case, 4 -nitro-o-xylene is not autoflammable at 32 deg C and 960 hPa.
