Executive summary:

In accordance with GLP study and DIN 51794:2003-05(Corresponded with EU method A.15) the Auto-ignition temperature was tested. Test item was tested as supplied. The T1 temperature was determined in the preliminary test and it was used to determine initial temperature T2 for the main test .The main test consisted from 3 stages where the lowest temperatures T3,T4 and T5 were determined by changing temperatures and the quantity of the sample for one drop. After each positive/negative test the temperature of the ignition chamber was decreased/increased until it reached the exact temperature at which for the first time there was ignition. Then tests of ignition were performed at this temperature by increasing each time the amount of sample used for 1 drop. Before each introduction of a new portion of the sample, ignition chamber was cleaned using compressed ait.The day 25.01.2017 temperature T5 was determined by using clean ignition chamber. The final auto-ignition temperature was identify the next day using the temperature T5 as the start temperature and with a new ignition chamber. The final auto-ignition temperature of test item was determinedas the temperature T6 =460 °C.
