Conclusions:
Commercially available auto-ignition temperature apparatus was used for the determination of the degree of auto-ignitability of Orange Oil Cold Pressed 1-Fold-Orange, ext. (Citrus sinensis, Rutaceae).

The test substance is auto-ignitable with an auto-ignition temperature at 1012.2 - 1016.5 hPa of 235°C.
Executive summary:

The auto-ignition temperature of Orange Oil Cold Pressed 1-Fold-Orange, ext. (Citrus sinensis, Rutaceae) was determined according to EU Method A.15 under GLP. The auto-ignition temperature was found to be 235 degrees Celsius at 1012.2 - 1016.5 hPa.

Description of key information

The auto-ignition temperature was found to be 235 degrees Celsius at 1012.2 - 1016.5 hPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
235 °C

Additional information

For the autoflammability/self-ignition temperature, data are available for orange oil (235ºC), lemon oil (235ºC) and lime oil (240ºC). These observations are read-across to the tangerine oil. For tangerine oil, the self-ignition temperature is estimated to be > 235ºC (based on the value for orange oil, which most closely resembles tangerine oil based on chemical composition).
