Key result
Auto-ignition temperature:
360 °C
Atm. press.:
>= 990.6 - <= 1 008.6 hPa

Ignition of the test substance within 5 minutes after introduction was observed with each sample volume and with each test a minimum auto-ignition temperature was obtained. The maximum deviation between the three values was < 20°C. The lowest temperature at which ignition of the test substance occurred was 363°C. This temperature was rounded off to the nearest multiple of 5°C giving the auto-ignition temperature of the test substance.
