Description of key information
Flash point of MITC (methyl isothiocyanate) was found equal to 28 °C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 28 °C
Additional information
According to the databank PTB-AG 3.43 (2009), MITC (methyl isothiocyanate) flash point is the range 303.15-305.15K (closed cup), i.e. 30°C-32°C. Same study was conducted by MLPC (Hundington Lab), on two replicates according to a GLP method was made- EEC method A9. The duplicate determined flash points of MITC were 28°C and 30°C. For safety assessment purposes, the lower of the two values will be reported as the flash point (i.e. 28°C).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
