Conclusion


The auto-ignition temperature of the test item was 243 ± 3 °C (corrected temperature).


 

Conclusions:
An auto-ignition temperature value of 243 ± 3 °C at 1013 hPa was determined for the substance using a relevant test method and in compliance with GLP. The result is considered to be reliable.
