960 hPa
Remarks on result:
other: Not auto flammable at 30°C
Key result
Remarks on result:
other: Not auto flammable at 30°C
Remarks:
at atm. press. of 960.0 hPa
Conclusions:
2-tert-butylhydroquinone is not auto flammable at 30°C and 960 hPa.
Executive summary:

2-tert-butylhydroquinone did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 30 °C and atmospheric pressure of 960 hPa. This indicates that 2-tert-butylhydroquinone is not auto-flammable.
