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:
- 2017-12-18 (experimental phase)
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
- Version / remarks:
- Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. Flash Point
- Deviations:
- not specified
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- ISO 13736 (Petroleum products and other liquids - Determination of flash point - Abel closed cup method)
- Version / remarks:
- DIN EN ISO 13736 (2013): Determination of Flash Point – Abel
- Deviations:
- not specified
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Type of method:
- closed cup
- Flash point apparatus:
- Abel apparatus
- Key result
- Flash point:
- 13 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 101.3 kPa
- Remarks on result:
- other:
- Remarks:
- average corrected and rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 2 (highly flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The study was performed under GLP according to EU method A.9 with the Abel apparatus ABA 4 closed cup method on the registered substance itself. The test procedure is well documented without restrictions or deviations and therefore reliability of Klimisch 1 has been assigned. The flash point was determined to be 13.0 °C at 101.3 kPa (< 23 °C). Taking into account the boiling range of 108 - 109 °C beside the measured flash point, the test item has to be classified as highly flammable liquid of category 2 and has to be marked with the warning “H225: highly flammable liquid and vapour”.
- Executive summary:
The test item Trimethyl orthoacetate (TMOA) has a closed-cup flash point of 13.0 °C (average corrected and rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C), according toRegulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. Flash Point and DIN EN ISO 13736 (2013).
UN Transport Regulation: As the test item has a boiling range of 108 to 109 °C (> 35 °C) and a measured flash point of 13.0 °C (< 23 °C), it has to be classified in class 3 asflammable liquid of Packaging Group II.
GHS (CLP Regulation EC 1272/2008 Annex 1: 2.6): As the test item has a boiling range of 108 to 109 °C (> 35 °C) and a measured flash point of 13.0 °C (< 23 °C), it has to be classified as highly flammable liquid of category 2 and has to be marked with the warning “H225: highly flammable liquid and vapour”.
