Autoignition temperature (liquids and gases) testing
Autoignition temperature (AIT) (liquids and gases) Testing for hazard chemicals determines the lowest temperature at which a volatile substance will spontaneously ignite without the help of an external flame/ignition source. Flammability is dependent on environmental factors such as vessel volume, pressure and surface materials; it is vital to define the AIT hazard in conditions as close to the end process as possible.
