Results

Preliminary test

The estimated auto-ignition temperature was 445°C.

 

 Main study

Ignition of the test substance within 5 minutes after introduction was observed with each sample volume and with each test a minimum auto-ignition temperature was obtained. The maximum deviation between the three values was < 20°C. According to the guidelines, no further testing was required.

 

The lowest temperature at which ignition of the test substance occurred was 443°C. This temperature was rounded off to the nearest multiple of 5°C giving an auto-ignition temperature of the test substance of 440°C.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Commercially available auto-ignition temperature apparatus was used for the determination of the degree of auto-ignitability of Chloracetessigester.

The test substance is auto-ignitable with an auto-ignition temperature at 1005.3 1019.8 hPa of 440°C.
