Flammability
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
Description of key information
Flash point = 56.3°C (experimental)
Flammability in contact with air or water is waived based on the chemical structure and experience.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- flammable
Additional information
As the substance is a liquid, the relevant test for flammable properties is the flash point measurement. A reliable experimental study is presented under point 4.11.
Based on the chemical structure and experience, no flammable properties are anticipated if contact with air or water, therefore studies were deemed unnecessary.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the retained flash point value of 56.3°C, diisopentyl ether is classified as flammable liquid (H226) according to the EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008. According to Annex I of Directive 67/584/EEC, the substance is classified as Flammable Liquid (R10).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
