Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Flammability (dimethoxy(methyl)vinylsilane): highly flammable
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- highly flammable
Additional information
The flammability study is not required for liquids as flammability is assessed on the basis of flash point.
There is no indication on the basis of the structure and experience in handling and use that the substance is pyrophoric (flammable in contact with air) or flammable in contact with water.
Therefore, in accordance with Section 1 of REACH Annex XI, there is no need to conduct further flammability testing.
Lower and upper flammability limit values of 1.2% and 25.9% at 100°C were determined for the substance in accordance with ASTM E 681-94 test method. At concentrations in air below 1.2% and above 25.9% the substance is too lean and too rich respectively for the substance to burn. The result is considered to be reliable.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance is classified as Flammable Liquid Category 2 (H225: Highly flammable liquid and vapour) according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. This is on the basis of a flash point of 5°C and a measured boiling point of 103.9°C.
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). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
