Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

The auto-ignition temperature was determined to be 180 °C at 1013.25 hPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
180 °C

Additional information

A GLP study was conducted (BASF SE, SIK-Nr. 14/0912) to determine the auto flammability temperature of the test item according to Regulation (EC) No 440/2008, Annex A.15. The auto-ignition temperature of the test item was determined in three in depended experiments. The results were corrected according to EN 14522 to atmospheric standard conditions. The auto-ignition temperature was determined to be 180 °C at 1013.25 hPa.

A non GLP study was conducted (BASF AG 1969, A591) to determine the auto flammability temperature of the substances. The auto-ignition temperature was determined to be 170 °C at 1013.25 hPa. In addition the GESTIS database reports the auto-ignition temperature to be 170 °C.

In conclusion, all available data shows comparable results for the auto-ignition temperature of the test item. The result of the GLP study was regarded as most reliable and was therefore chosen as key value for chemical safety assessment.
