Reference
Endpoint:
pyrophoric liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study
Justification for type of information:
Experimental test result performed using standard test guidelines.
Qualifier:
no guideline available
Principles of method if other than guideline:
It is how easily substance can burn or ignite, causing fire or combustion by brief contact with an ignition source.
GLP compliance:
no
Specific details on test material used for the study:
Name of test material (as cited in study report): Diphenyl sulphide
Molecular formula:C12H10S
Molecular weight:186.277 g/mol
Smiles : c1(Sc2ccccc2)ccccc1
InChI : 1S/C12H10S/c1-3-7-11(8-4-1)13-12-9-5-2-6-10-12/h1-10H
Substance Type: Organic
Physical State: Liquid
Key result
Test procedure:
ignition time on contact with air
Remarks on result:
other: Diphenyl sulphide (CAS No. 139-66-2) did not ignited when the flame of Bunsen burner having temperature of about 950 deg C was brought in contact with it.
Interpretation of results:
other: non-flammable
Conclusions:
The substance Diphenyl sulphide (CAS No. 139-66-2) does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus, it can be concluded that Diphenyl sulphide is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus Diphenyl sulphide (CAS No. 139-66-2) was considered non-flammable for chemical safety assessment.
Executive summary:

The substance Diphenyl sulphide (CAS No. 139-66-2) does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus, it can be concluded that Diphenyl sulphide is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus Diphenyl sulphide (CAS No. 139-66-2) was considered non-flammable for chemical safety assessment.
