Conclusions:
Under the study conditions, the auto-ignition temperature of the test substance was determined to be between 380 and 385°C (ASTM E-659).
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the auto-ignition temperature of the test substance according to ASTM E-659 specifications. The method was abbreviated for this study to determine a range for the autoignition temperature of the sample. Under the study conditions, the auto-ignition temperature of the test substance was determined to be between 380 and 385°C (Martens, 2016).
