- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- ISO No., other: OECD 103
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The flash point of a flammable liquid is the lowest temperature at which there will be enough flammable vapor to ignite when an ignition source is applied.
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- closed cup
- Flash point:
- 87.3 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 976.9 hPa
- Conclusions:
- The mean flash point of octyl acetate(CAS No. 112-14-1) is 87.3°C at 976.9hPa.
- Executive summary:
The flash point determination of octyl acetate (CAS No. 112-14-1)was done following closed cup method using Pensky-Martens flash point apparatus. The test was conducted in replicates and mean flash point was found to be 87.3°C at 976.9hPa. Based on the result the octyl acetate was considered to be non-flammable as per the CLP regulations.

Description of key information
The flash point determination of octyl acetate (CAS No. 112-14-1) was done following closed cup method using Pensky-Martens flash point apparatus. The test was conducted in replicates and mean flash point was found to be 87.3°C at 976.9hPa. Based on the result the octyl acetate was considered to be non-flammable as per the CLP regulations.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 87.778 °C
Additional information
Various studies for theOctyl acetate(112-14-1) were reviewed to summarize the following information:
The flash point determination of octyl acetate (CAS No. 112-14-1) was done following closed cup method using Pensky-Martens flash point apparatus. The test was conducted in replicates and mean flash point was found to be 87.3°C at 976.9hPa. Based on the result the octyl acetate was considered to be non-flammable as per the CLP regulations.
From the available data of authoritative handbooks and database, flash point of Octyl acetate was determined to be 87.778 and 83 degree C.
As per the available data for flash point from laboratory, the flash point value determined was in range from 83 degree C to 87.778 degree C. As the data from laboratory has K1 reliability which has the value of flash point as87.3°C at 976.9hPawithin the range thus considered as key study for the chemical safety assessment. Also based on criteria mentioned in CLP regulation the chemical has flash point >than 60 degree C hence the substance Octyl acetate (CAS No. 112-14-1) was considered to be non-flammable.
