Flash point
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flash point of flammable liquids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- Date: 02.05.1990
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study with acceptable restrictions
- Remarks:
- Research memorandum provided instead of a study report.
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- ISO 3679 (Determination of flash point - Rapid equilibrium closed cup method)
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Type of method:
- closed cup
- Flash point apparatus:
- Setaflash apparatus
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Test material was noted as Trigonox D-C50
- Key result
- Flash point:
- 43 °C
- Remarks on result:
- other: reported flashpoint is for the marketed product (50 % in isododecane)
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 3 (flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
- Remarks:
- commercial product is Category 3, the neat substance is not classified based on literature and modeling results being > 60 oC
- Conclusions:
- The flashpoint of the marketed product (50 % in isododecane) is 43 °C. This is consistent with the reported flashpoint of the isododecane (45 °C).
- Executive summary:
To investigate the safety aspects of 2,2-di-(tert-butylperoxy) butane, 50% in isododecane, a product safety investigation has been carried out. The flashpoint of the marketed product (50 % in isododecane) is 43 °C. This is consistent with the reported flashpoint of the isododecane (45 °C).
Reference
Description of key information
The flashpoint of the neat organic peroxide is > 60 oC based on literature and modeling results. The marketed product (50 % in isododecane) has a flashpoint of 43 oC, consistent with that reported for the isododecane (45 oC).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 43 °C
