Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key result
Auto-ignition temperature:
375 °C
Atm. press.:
>= 1 000.9 - <= 1 013.7 hPa
Auto-ignition temperature:
ca. 390 °C
Atm. press.:
>= 1 000.9 - <= 1 013.7 hPa
Remarks on result:
preliminary test

The lowest measured auto-ignition temperature is 377°C. This temperature was rounded down to the nearest 5°C giving the auto-ignition temperature for the test substance (i.e. 375°C).

Conclusions:
The auto-ignition temperature of Amphopropionate C8 was determined to be 375°C (1000.9 - 1013.7hPa).
Executive summary:

The auto-ignition temperature of Amphopropionate C8 was determined accordign to EU method A.15 (1992) and DIN 51794 (2003). Three tests were performed. In each test, different volumes of test substance were injected successively into a test vessel. The temperature in the test vessel was lowered gradually from a sufficiently high temperature to a temperature at which it was obvious that no more ignition occurred. The lowest measured auto-ignition temperature was 377°C. This temperature was rounded down to the nearest 5°C giving the auto-ignition temperature for the test substance. In conclusion, the auto-ignition temperature of Amphopropionate C8 is 375°C (1000.9 - 1013.7hPa).
