Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
16 February 2011 - 17 February 2011
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)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 191 °C
Remarks on result:
other: No ignition observed up to the melting point of the test substance.

Three replicate tests were performed. The relative self-ignition temperature of the test substance: no ignition was observed up to 191°C (melting point of the test substance determined in a previous study).

Conclusions:
The result of the relative self-ignition temperature study on the test substance was that no ignition was observed up to 191 °C (melting point of the test material determined in a previous study).
Executive summary:

The self-ignition temperature of the test substance was examined according to EU method A.16. A certain volume of the test substance under the assay is placed in an oven at room temperature; the temperature / time curve is recorded while the temperature of the oven is increased to 400°C or to the melting point, at a rate of 0.5 °C/min. For the purpose of this test, the temperature of the oven at which the sample temperature reaches 400 °C by self-heating is called the self-ignition temperature. Three replicate tests were performed. The result of the relative self-ignition temperature study on the test substance was that no ignition was observed up to 191 °C (melting point of the test material determined in a previous study).

Description of key information

No relative self-ignition for the test substance was observed up to 191°C (melting point of the test material).

Key value for chemical safety assessment
