- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 02 July 2001 to 04 July 2001
- 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:
- not specified

- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Identity: FAT 40800/A
Batch number: WP 2/01
Aggregate state at room temperature: Solid / powder
Color: Dark orange
Storage conditions: At room temperature at about 20 °C, away form direct sunlight
Expiration Date: February 14, 2007 - Relative self-ignition temperature:
- 279 °C
- Conclusions:
- The auto-flammability temperature of the test substance is 279 °C.
- Executive summary:
In a GLP-compliant study, determination of the relative self-ignition temperature of the test item, was performed according to EU method A.16. Applying a linear increase in temperature of about 0.5 °C/min, FAT 40800/A showed an exothermic reaction starting at about 250 °C. A maximum temperature of 572 °C was measured in the sample cube during the exothermic reaction. At the end of the measurement, the test item was carbonised and coloured black. Based on the test results, FAT 40800/A shows a relative self-ignition temperature at about 279 °C.

Additional information
In a GLP-compliant study, determination of the relative self-ignition temperature of the test item was performed according to EU method A.16. Applying a linear increase in temperature of about 0.5 °C/min, FAT 40800/A showed an exothermic reaction starting at about 250 °C. A maximum temperature of 572 °C was measured in the sample cube during the exothermic reaction. At the end of the measurement, the test item was carbonised and coloured black. FAT 40800/A shows a relative self-ignition temperature at about 279 °C. In conclusion, FAT 40800/A is auto-flammable under the conditions of the test.
