- Version / remarks:
- Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 laying down test methods pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), Method A.16, Official Journal of the European Union L 142 of 31 May 2008
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- No further details specified int he study report.
- Key result
- Remarks on result:
- no self-ignition observed up to the melting point
- Conclusions:
- Three replicate tests were performed. The relative self-ignition temperature of the test item: no ignition was observed up to around 100°C, when the test item melted.
- Executive summary:
The purpose of this test is to provide preliminary information on the autoflammability of solid substances at elevated temperatures. A specific amount of the test substance is placed in an oven, in a wire-mesh cube at room temperature; the temperature difference/time curve of the sample of test item is recorded while the temperature of the oven is increased to the melting of test item (about to 100°C) at a rate of 0.5°C/min. For the purpose of this test, the temperature of the oven at which the sample temperature reaches 400°C by self-heating is called the self-ignition temperature.
Three replicate tests were performed. No relative self-ignition temperature of α,α’-Dichloro-p-xylene was observed up to around 100°C.
