Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The Minium Ignition Temperature determined in the BAM oven is 400 deg C.

Conclusions:
The Minimum Ignition Temperature determined in the BAM oven for T001159 is 400°C.

Principles of method if other than guideline:
Modifications to the EU A.16 Method: A heating rate of 1.0-1.2 deg C/min or 0.6 deg C/min is used instead of 0.5 deg C/min due to an alternative Swiss Chemical Industry method and technical restriction of the apparatus used. Cylindric wire baskets with 0.2 mm openings are used.

Key result
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions

Heating rate: 1.0 °C/min

The sample is heated from room temperature (about 20 deg C) to +/- 135 °C (nearby the melting point). The sample shows no self-ignition to 400°C in the test run.

Conclusions:
In conclusion, the tested substance T001159 is not auto-flammable up to the temperature applied in the test run. The substance has no relative self-ignition temperature.

Description of key information

The auto-flammability test didn't need to be conducted since the melting point of the substance is =< 160°C.

From a supporting study (assigned K4 ) from the Janssen Process Safety Center in 1985 based on a modified EC A.16 guideline, the VDI Guideline 2263 Part 1: Autoignition-Testing as per Grewer and the method from the ESCIS Expert Commission for Safety in the Swiss Chemical Industry, Booklet 1 ''Sicherheitstests fur Chemikalien'', it could be derived that no self-ignition temperature was observed for T001159.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

In a supporting study (assigned K4) carried out by the Janssen Process Safety Center (in 1990), the Minimum Ignition Temperature determined in the BAM oven for T001159 was determined to be 400°C.
