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))
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
atmospheric pressure was not recorded
GLP compliance:
yes
Key result
Auto-ignition temperature:
246 °C
Remarks on result:
other: Due to an instrument failure the atmospheric pressure was not recorded; standard atmospheric pressure of 1013 hPa may be assumed
Conclusions:
The auto-ignition temperature of the substance was 246 ± 5 °C at about 1013 hPa.
Executive summary:

The auto-ignition temperature of the substance was studied under GLP in accordance with EU Method A.15. Due to an instrument failure the atmospheric pressure was not recorded. No ignition was observed up to a test temperature of 244 °C. Grey fumes were emitted at a test temperature of 244 °C or greater. An orange/blue flame was observed at a test temperature of 246 °C. The auto-ignition temperature was determined to be 246 ± 5 °C.

Description of key information

The auto-ignition temperature of the substance was 246 ± 5 °C at about 1013 hPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
