- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Commercial name: Dimetol (as reported in the report):
Chemical nature: 2,6-dimethylheptan-2-ol
Molecular weight: 144.2 g/mol
CAS number: 13254-34-7
Batch: PE00090447
Purity: 99.6 %
Expiry date: 28 May 2016 - Key result
- Auto-ignition temperature:
- 380 °C
- Atm. press.:
- >= 1 013.3 - <= 1 020.9 hPa
- Conclusions:
- Commercially available auto-ignition temperature apparatus was used for the determination of the degree of auto-ignitability of Dimetol.
The test substance is auto-ignitable with an auto-ignition temperature of 380°C at 1013.3 – 1020.9 hPa.
