Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
- Study period:
- This study will be available 29/07/2018
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a solid having a melting point <= 160°C
- Endpoint:
- relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Chemical name: 2-benzoylbenzoic acid
Other name (sponsor's code): o-benzoylbenzoic acid
CAS number: 85-52-9
Batch No.: 170269
Analysis date: 23/05/2017
Appearance: Powder
Colour: White
Storage Conditions: Ambient temperature in a dark place, in the original glass bottle. - Key result
- Remarks on result:
- no self ignition observed under the test conditions
- Conclusions:
- Auto flammability is determined according to A16 EU method. The study reports that no self ignition temperature of the solid test item was observed up to the melting point.
- Executive summary:
Auto flammability is determined according to A16 EU method. The study reports that no self ignition temperature of the solid test item was observed up to the melting point.
