Results and discussion
Auto-ignition temperature (liquids / gases)
- Auto-ignition temperature:
- 375 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 998.7 - 1 003.1 hPa
- Remarks on result:
- other:
Any other information on results incl. tables
Ignition of the test substance within 5 minutes after introduction was observed with each sample volume and during each test a minimum auto-ignition temperature was obtained. The maximum deviation between the three values was 20°C. According to the guidelines, no further testing was required.
The lowest temperature at which ignition of the test substance occurred was 375°C, which is also the auto-ignition temperature if rounded down to the nearest 5°C inaccordance with DIN 51794.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- A commercially available auto-ignition temperature apparatus was used for the determination of the degree of auto-ignitability of Corsair Clear #12. The test substance is auto-ignitable with an auto-ignition temperature of 375°C at 998.7 - 1003.1 hPa.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
