Results and discussion

Relative self-ignition temperature (solids)
Key result
Relative self-ignition temperature:
> 410 °C
Remarks on result:
no self ignition observed under the test conditions

Any other information on results incl. tables

In the investigation of self-ignition in the Grewer Oven for the pure test item an endothermic effect could be observed starting at a temperature of 190 °C which can be assigned the melting to the test item. No further thermal effects could be observed up to the maximum test temperature of 410 °C. After the test the wire basket was empty.

For the test item in mixture with Kieselguhr an endothermic effect could be observed starting at a temperature of 190 °C which can be assigned the melting to the test item. No further thermal effects could be observed up to the maximum test temperature of 410 °C.A white residue (Kieselguhr) remained in the wire basket after the test.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
On the basis to the results of the tests on the self-ignition in the Grewer Oven the test item is classified as follows:
UN Transport Regulation: The test item does not have to be classified as self-heating substance in Class 4, Division 4.2 according to the UN Transport Regulation.
GHS / CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 Annex I: 2.11: The test item does not have to be classified as self-heating substance according to GHS / CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 Annex I: 2.11
Executive summary:

The pure test item p-Chlorobenzoic acid showed an endothermic effect starting at a temperature of 200 °C which can be assigned the melting to the test item. No further thermal effects could be observed up to the maximum test temperature of 410 °C. The test item does not have to be classified as self-heating substance according to GHS / CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 Annex I: 2.11.
