I would think it's the same as spontaneous combustion, so "självantändning" sounds right. Explanation: Autoflammability: some materials have the feature of igniting in air in the absence of a spark or flame. The auto-ignition temperature is the minimum temperature at which the material will spontaneously ignite without application of any external ignition source. ++++++++++++++++++++++ Spontaneous combustion: "the process of catching fire as a result of heat generated by internal chemical action" (Webster's) Reference: http://www.itcilo.it/english/actrav/telearn/osh/kemi/ctm3.ht... Webster's New World Dictionary, Third Edition |
