- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: Basic data given obtained in experiment performed according to appropriate standards (ISO 2719); no GLP
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- ISO 2719 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method)
- Version / remarks:
- 2002
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- non-equilibrium method closed cup
- Flash point:
- ca. 123.5 °C
- Atm. press.:

- Flash point:
- ca. 125.5 °C
- Atm. press.:
- ca. 103 kPa
- Conclusions:
- The flash point of the test substance 3-Mercaptopropionsäure has been determined to be 124.5 °C (at pressure ~102.45 kPa).
- Executive summary:
The test material 3-Mercaptopropionsäure has been determined to have a flash point 124.5 °C (at pressure ~102.45 kPa) by using Pensky-Martens closed cup method according to method DIN EN ISO 2719:2002 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method).
Reference
Two determinations of of the flash point have been performed and the mean value of 124.5 °C has been reported (at pressure ~102.45 kPa).
Description of key information
Flash point: ca. 124.5 °C (at pressure ~102.45 kPa).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 123 °C
Additional information
The study performed in experimental laboratory (Petersen, 2004, UNA), dedicated to estimate the flash point of the test material 3 -Mercaptopropionsäure, has been chosen as a key study. The flash point has been determined to be 124.5 °C (mean value from two determinations at pressure ~102.45 kPa) by using Pensky-Martens closed cup method according to method DIN EN ISO 2719:2002 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method).
The other available supporting study (Rampy, 1973, Dow) reports the flash point to be greater than 98.33 °C. The information given in supporting study qualitatively supports the key study.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
