Any other information on results incl. tables

Using a linear increase in temperature of 0.5°C/min, the test substance showed two exothermic reactions.

The first exothermic reaction started at an oven temperature of 205°C. The test substance temperature increased to a maximum of 240°C at an oven temperature of 210°C.

The second exothermic reaction started at an oven temperature of 340°C. The test substance temperature increased to > 400°C at an oven temperature of 340°C (i.e. self-ignition temperature of the test substance). A maximum of 485°C was reached at an oven temperature of 355°C.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

"RSS-4"-Dry Substance is self-ignitable at an oven temperature of 340°C, according to the criteria described in the method A.16 of EEC Directive 92/69.

Executive summary:

"RSS-4"-Dry Substance is self-ignitable at an oven temperature of 340°C, according to the criteria described in the method A.16 of EEC Directive 92/69.
