Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Reference
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: GLP compliant guideline study, available as unpublished report, no restrictions, fully adequate for assessment.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 2719 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method)
Version / remarks:
2002
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
closed cup
Key result
Remarks on result:
other: During the tests, it was observed visually that the test substance boils at 114.6 °C using the Pensky-Martens closed cup method. No flammable vapour/air mixture was produced in the test vessel at temperatures below boiling.
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
No flammable vapour/air mixture was produced in the test vessel at temperatures below boiling, therefore; the test substance does not have a flash-point.
Executive summary:

Using the closed cup method, the test substance was heated from 20 °C to the visually observed boiling temperature of 114.6°C. Attempts to ignite the vapour of the test substance were made every 2°C of temperature rise. No flammable vapour/air mixture was produced in the test vessel at temperatures below boiling, therefore; the test substance does not have a flash-point.

Description of key information

Using the closed cup method, the test substance was heated from~ 20 °C to the visually observed boiling temperature of 114.6°C. Attempts to ignite the vapour of the test substance were made every 2°C of temperature rise. No flammable vapour/air mixture was produced in the test vessel at temperatures below boiling, therefore; the test substance does not have a flash-point.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
