Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The autoignition temperature is 213 degrees C.
Executive summary:

The autoignition temperature was determined in an ASTM E659 test.  Samples of the test substance were exposed to temperatures ranging from 191-314 degrees C to determine the autoignition point.  After 13 trials, the autoiginition temperature was determined to be 213 degrees C.
