Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Auto flammability
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: Company SOP
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Details see below
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Key result
- Relative self-ignition temperature:
- > 360 °C
- Remarks on result:
- no self ignition observed under the test conditions
- Conclusions:
- Under 4 out of 5 tests the substance does not ignite.
Ignition with 150 mg substance in red hot glowing iron cup. This test is not relevant for classification. - Executive summary:
Ignition temperature of dust layers
Result: no reaction at 360° C
Minimum ignition temperature of dust layers (glowing temperature)
Result: substance melts partially at about 110° C, melts at about 130° C (hot plate 225° C)
Evaluation of flammability in contact with Platin-wire (1000°C)
Result: no ignition, melting with smoke emission (also with a mixture with 20% Kiselguhr).
Evaluation of flammability in contact with the hot flame of a gas burner
Result: no iginition only smoke emission.
150mg substance in red hot glowing iron cup
Result:
pure substance: very quick burn out with flames
with KNO3: very quick burn out with flames
Red-glowing-iron-cup -test is not relevant for classification as flammable, as no ignition of
Guanidinium Nitrate was possible with gas flame or glowing platinum wire.
Test is not approved or suitable and therefore not relevant.
- Endpoint:
- relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- test procedure in accordance with national standard methods with acceptable restrictions
- Key result
- Relative self-ignition temperature:
- > 360 °C
- Remarks on result:
- other: 1 atm
- Conclusions:
- Guanidine nitrate did not ignite in any of the tests performed. Bevor ignition the substance decomposed and fumed off. Self ignition temperature above 360 °C.
- Executive summary:
Guanidine nitrate did not ignite in any of the tests performed. Bevor ignition the substance decomposed and fumed off. Self ignition temperature above 360 °C.

self-ignition temperature for technical Grade according to BAM: Bundesanstalt für Materialprüfung, "Bericht über die Prüfung von Guanidinnitrat (Rohprodukt) im Hinblick auf ein vorgesehenes Mahlen in einer Hammermühle", 06.09.63
Ignition properties of the substance could not be determined as the sample did not ignite in any of the tests performed. Bevor ignition the substance decomposed and fumed off.
