Help -

On Materials Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), a value for the autoignition temperature is often listed. I found this ASTM standard for determining the autoignition temperature if the material is a solid or liquid:

ASTM G72 - 01 Standard Test Method for Autogenous Ignition Temperature of Liquids and Solids in a High-Pressure Oxygen-Enriched Environment

Is there a standard for gases?/b/u

I also found one for dust clouds (ASTM E 1491)

Thank you!
