Reference

Endpoint:

relative self-ignition temperature (solids)

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

07 Jul - 08 Jul 2015

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

guideline study

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.16 (Relative Self-Ignition Temperature for Solids)

GLP compliance:

no

Specific details on test material used for the study:

Storage conditions: ambient temperature (10 – 30 °C)

Remarks on result:

no self ignition observed under the test conditions

Remarks:

No self-ignition temperature was seen up the maximum test temperature of 401 °C.

Results
The test item showed an endothermal effect in the range of 200 – 220 °C. No further endothermal nor exothermal effects were seen up to the final test temperature of 401 °C. No self-ignition temperature was observed. After the measurement, the test item had melted and decomposed.

Conclusion: No self-ignition temperature was seen up the maximum test temperature of 401 °C.

Description of key information

No self-ignition (EU Method A.16.)

Additional information

No self-ignition temperature was observed up to the maximum test temperature of 401°C, according to the testing guideline for auto-flammability (solids - determination of relative self-ignition temperature) in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A.16.
