Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key result
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 400 °C
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions

Conclusions:
No self ignition was observed up to the stop temperature of 400 °C.
Executive summary:

The relative self-ignition temperature was determined according to EU Method A.16.

A certain volume of the substance under test is placed in an oven at room temperature; the temperature/time curve relating to conditions in the centre of the sample is recorded while the temperature of the oven is increased to 400 °C, or to the melting point if lower, at a rate of 0.5 °C/min. For the purpose of this test, the temperature of the oven at which the sample temperature reaches 400 °C by self-heating is called the self-ignition temperature.

No self ignition was observed up to the stop temperature of 400 °C.

Description of key information

The relative self-ignition temperature was determined according to EU Method A.16 (Roos, 2007).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information
