Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
auto-ignition temperature (liquids)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2 January 2013 to 7 January 2013
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Study conducted in compliance with agreed protocols, with no or minor deviations from standard test guidelines and/or minor methodological deficiencies, which do not affect the quality of the relevant results.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: DIN 51794:2003-05 (Determination of the Autoignition Temperature)
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.15 (Auto-Ignition Temperature (Liquids and Gases))
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
no
Auto-ignition temperature:
425 °C
Remarks on result:
other: Study conducted at normal atmospheric pressure.
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the study, the autoignition temperature of the test material was determined to be 425 °C (atmospheric pressure).
Executive summary:

The autoignition temperature of the test material was determined in accordance with DIN 5194:2003 -05, equivalent to EU Method A.15. Test material was intorduced in an open Erlenmeyer flask which was heated in an electric furnace; the temperature at which ignition occurred was recorded. Thereafter, remaining volatile fractions were removed from the flask by blowing with air. By varying the temperature and sample size the lowest value of a test series can be determined.

Under the conditions of the study, the autoignition temperature of the test material was determined to be 425 °C (atmospheric pressure).

Description of key information

Autoignition temperature = 425 °C, DIN 5194:2003 -05 (equivalent to EU Method A.15), Naßhan (2013)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
425 °C

Additional information

The autoignition temperature of the test material was determined in accordance with DIN 5194:2003 -05 (equivalent to EU Method A.15). Test material was intorduced in an open Erlenmeyer flask which was heated in an electric furnace; the temperature at which ignition occurred was recorded. Thereafter, remaining volatile fractions were removed from the flask by blowing with air. By varying the temperature and sample size the lowest value of a test series can be determined.

Under the conditions of the study, the autoignition temperature of the test material was determined to be 425 °C in a normal atmosphere.

The study was performed to standardised guidelines with a sufficient level of detail to assess the quality of the submitted data; it was assigned a reliability score of 1 according to the criteria of Klimisch (1997).
