Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Study conducted in compliance with GLP and agreed protocols, with no or minor deviations from standard test guidelines and/or minor methodological deficiencies, which do not affect the quality of relevant results.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
reference to same study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:

Remarks:
Date of Signature: 15/10/2007; Date of Inspection: 21/08/2007
Remarks on result:
no self-ignition observed up to the melting point

 Observations after the test

The cube was empty. A black charred solid residue was observed beneath the cube.

Conclusions:
The test material has been determined not to have a relative self-ignition temperature below its melting temperature.

Executive summary:

The test material was heated in an oven and the relative self ignition temperature determined. Testing was conducted using Method A16 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).The test material has been determined not to have a relative self-ignition temperature below its melting temperature.

Description of key information

No relative self-ignition temperature below the melting point of the material, EU Method A.16, Tremain (2008)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

In the key study (Tremain 2008), the test material was heated in an oven and the relative self-ignition temperature determined. Testing was conducted according to Method A.16 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC) under GLP conditions.

The study was assigned a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the principles for assessing data quality as defined in Klimisch et al. (1997).

The test material has been determined not to have a relative self-ignition temperature below its melting temperature.
