Lower explosion limit: 2,8 Vol.-%; 52  g/m³.
Upper explosion limit: 14,4 Vol.-%; 270 g/m³.

Description of key information

The upper explosion limit is given as 2.8 Vol.-% at a density of 52 g/m³ and a lower exposion limit of 14.4 Vol.-% at 270 g/m³.

In accordance to REACH, Annex VII, Section 7.10, column 2, pyrophoric properties and flammability on contact with water are not applicable for gases.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
extremely flammable liquified gas

Additional information

The peer-reviewed database GESTIS presents the information of dimethylamine to be an extremely flammable liquefied gas.
