Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
auto-ignition temperature (liquids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases))
Version / remarks:
; EU Method A.15 was considered more appropriate than EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids) given the low melting temperature of the test substance (9°C).
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Key result
Auto-ignition temperature:
342 °C

Description of key information

342°C at 101'500 - 101'700 Pa (EU A.15)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

EU Method A.15 was considered more appropriate than EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids) given the low melting temperature of the test substance (9°C).
