Reference
Results
With the oven set at 140 °C the test item temperature reached approximately 136 °C. The oven temperature was increased to 145 °C and the test item temperature reached 140 ± 2 °C as specified in the method. There were no signs of self ignition or self heating thoughout the test period.
Conclusion
The test item is not classified as a self-heating substance.
Description of key information
not self-heating
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Glycine (CAS 56-40-6) is not classified as self-heating on the basis of a GLP study similar to UN RTDG Test N.4. In this study a negative result was obtained using a 100 mm sample cube at 140 °C for 24 h.
