Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
March from the 06th to the 10th, 2014
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
test procedure in accordance with generally accepted scientific standards and described in sufficient detail
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Specific details on test material used for the study:
Test Item was used in its initial form.
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions
Remarks:
up to 400 °C

No self-ignition temperature was observed up to the temperature of decomposition (determined to 272 °C, i.e. 545 K in a specific separated test).

An unknown exothermic reaction was detected at about 431 min, however it cannot be considered self-ignition because the temperature of the sample did not reach 400 °C.

Conclusions:
No self-ignition temperature was recorded up to 400 °C
Executive summary:

A certain volume of the test item under the assay was placed in an oven at room temperature; the temperature /time curve was recorded while the temperature of the oven was increased at a rate of 0.5 °C/min. For the purpose of the test, the temperature of the oven at which the sample temperature reaches 400 °C by self-heating is called the self-ignition temperature. Three replicate tests were performed.

No self-ignition temperature was observed up to the temperature of decomposition (determined to 272°C, i.e. 545 K in a specific separated test). An unknown exothermic reaction was detected at about 431 min, however it cannot be considered self-ignition because the temperature of the sample did not reach 400 °C.

Conclusion

No self-ignition temperature was recorded up to 400 °C

Description of key information

No self-ignition temperature was recorded up to 400 °C

Key value for chemical safety assessment
