Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Reference
Endpoint:
relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
1996
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)

Key result
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions

No endothermic or exothermic reaction was observed during the performance of the test. Therefore, no self-ignition temperature could be determined.

Conclusions:
No self-ignition was observed up to 400 °C. Therefore, the test item does not self-ignite.
Executive summary:

A study according to EU Method A.16 was conducted to determine the relative self-ignition temperature of the test item. The tests were started from ambient oven temperature. The temperature of the oven and sample were continuously recorded with a thermosensor while the temperature of the oven was increased at a rate of approximately 0.5 °C/min up to 400 °C. In the course of this study the test item did not self-ignite up to 400 °C. Thus, no self-ignition temperature could be stated.

Description of key information

No self-ignition was observed up to 400 °C. Therefore, the test item does not self-ignite.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
