Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Results and discussion

Relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 400 °C
Remarks on result:
other: The test item has been determined not to have a relative self-ignition temperature below 400 °C.

Any other information on results incl. tables

The temperatureltime curve indicates that self-ignition of the test item did not occur as the oven temperature was increased to 400°C. Once the oven temperature has reached 400 °C this is deemed to be the end of the testing period. However, the temperature/time

curve shows that the oven temperature was maintained at 400 °C for an additional approximately 6 hours. After the oven had been at 400 °C for approximately 2 hours, the temperature of the sample increased to more than 500 °C. This thermal event is not regarded as self-ignition because it occurred after the testing period.

At the end of the test, the cube contained a grey/green partly fused solid.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test item has been determined not to have a relative self-ignition temperature below 400 °C.
Executive summary:

The self-ignition temperature of the test item TM10-099 was determined in a valid GLP study. Testing was conducted using a method designed to be compatible with EU Method A.16.

The test item was heated in an oven and the relative self-ignition temperature determined. The oven temperature was increased from ambient temperature to 400 °C at a rate of 0.5 °C/min.

The test item has been determined not to have a relative self-ignition temperature below 400°C.
