Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
Auto- ignition temperature: 242 °C
Executive summary:

In a guideline test according to EU Method A15, the auto-ignition temperature of the test material was determined to be 242 °C.

Description of key information

Auto ignition temperature: 242 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
242 °C

Additional information

The auto-ignition temperature of the test chemical was determined to be 242 °C indicating the self-ignition will not readily occur under normal atmospheric temperature.
