- Storage condition: at room temperature
Key result
Auto-ignition temperature:
ca. 356 °C
Atm. press.:
99.2 kPa

The auto-ignition temperature of the test substance was 356 ± 5°C, with a 500 µL injection volume and the atmospheric pressure was 99.2 kPa. White fume was observed. Ignition produced an orange flame.

Conclusions:
The auto-ignition temperature of the substance was determined to be 356 +-0.5°C at atmospheric pressure of 99.2 kPa.

Description of key information

Based on a GLP study (K1, Foster, 2016) according to the EU method A.15 the auto-ignition temperature of the test substance is 356°C ± 5°C at an atmospheric pressure of 99.2 kPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
