Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- auto-ignition temperature (liquids)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 19th May-21st May 2010
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Remarks:
- Meets the requirements of GLP. There are no deviations from the recommended guideline.
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases))
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Key result
- Auto-ignition temperature:
- 390 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 100 748 Pa
- Remarks on result:
- other: The lowest value of the auto ignition temperature is 394.5ºC. The auto ignition temperature, rounded down to a whole multiple of 5ºC. Therefore, the auto ignition temperature is stated as 390ºC.
- Conclusions:
- The auto ignition temperature according to EU method A.15 of the test substance is 390ºC.
- Executive summary:
An auto ignition temperature of 394.5 ºC was determined according to EU method A.15. This value is the lowest in 3 independent determinations. The auto ignition temperature (result of determination) is the lowest value from the lowest values of the three experiments, rounded down to a whole multiple of 5 ºC. Therefore, the auto ignition temperature is stated as 390 ºC.
Reference
The requirements for repeatability of the DIN standard are stated as follows: Three lowest values of the main study have to lie within a range of 10 K (if auto ignition temperature is below 300 °C) respectively 20 K (if auto ignition temperature is above 300 °C).
The following lowest values were recorded:

The lowest value of the auto ignition temperature is 394.5 ºC. This value was determined using five drops (first series) resp. three drops (third series) test item. The test item showed auto ignition instantly.
The auto ignition temperature (result of determination) is the lowest value from the lowest values of the three experiments, rounded down to a whole multiple of 5 ºC. Therefore, the auto ignition temperature is stated as 390 ºC.
The three lowest values of the main study lay within a range of 20 K (as required for auto ignition temperatures above 300 °C.
Description of key information
Key study: Experimental result: Test according to EU method A.15. GLP study.
The auto ignition temperature of the test substance is 390 ºC at 100748 Pa.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 390 °C
Additional information
Key study: Experimental result: Test according to EU method A.15.
An auto ignition temperature of 394.5 ºC was determined. This value is the lowest in 3 independent determinations. The auto ignition temperature (result of determination) is the lowest value from the lowest values of the three experiments, rounded down to a whole multiple of 5 ºC. Therefore, the auto ignition temperature is stated as 390 ºC.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
