Room temperature: 20°C

Atmospheric pressure: 101.28 to 102.20 kPa

Conclusions:
The test material has been determined to have an auto-ignition temperature of 394 ± 5°C.
Executive summary:

The auto-ignition temperature was determined by heating aliquots of the test material in a flask and observing for any ignition. Testing was conducted using Method Al5 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67 /548/EEC). The test material has been determined to have an auto-ignition temperature of 394 ± 5°C.
