Auto flammability

Link to relevant study record(s)

Reference

Reference 1

Endpoint:

auto-ignition temperature (liquids)

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

06-Oct-2008

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

test procedure in accordance with generally accepted scientific standards and described in sufficient detail

Remarks:

no GLP

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases))

Version / remarks:

DIN 51794

Deviations:

no

Principles of method if other than guideline:

The auto-ignition temperature is the lowest temperature at which the test item will ignite when mixed with air under the conditions defined in the test method. The test method determines the minimum temperature of the inner surface of an enclosure that will result in ignition of gas, vapour or liquid injected into the enclosure.

GLP compliance:

no

Specific details on test material used for the study:

- Name of test material (as cited in study report): Isodecyl methacrylate (IDMA)
- Substance type: organic

Key result

Auto-ignition temperature:

295 °C

Atm. press.:

1 003 hPa

Lowest value of the initial experiment: 75 - 650 °C

Lowest value of the main experiment:  303   °C

Lowest value of the 1st repeat:           300   °C

Lowest value of the 2nd repeat:         285   °C

Autoignition temperature:              295       °C *

* The autoignition temperature (result of all measurements) is lowest of all low values, rounded down to a multitude of 5 °C.

Conclusions:

The auto- ignition temperature was determined to be 295 °C at 1003 hPa according to DIN 51794.

Executive summary:

The auto- ignition temperature was determined to be 295 °C at 1003 hPa according to DIN 51794.
