Reference
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
From 16 May 2012 to 06 December 2012
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Remarks:
The study was conducted according to internationally recognised guidelines, and under GLP. No deviation affected the quality of the study. The study was performed on the commercial product (aqueous solution) as the test item is manufactured and used in a liquid form.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
reference to same study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Remarks:
2012-12-15
Type of method:
equilibrium method closed cup
Key result
Remarks on result:
other: no flash point up to 120°C (at this temperature the test item started to boil)

No flash point was observed up to 120.0 °C(corrected values).

At 120.0 °C, the test item boiled and overflowed of the dish just before the presentation of the flame. Then the test was stopped.

Results of the main test:

Based on the results of the preliminary test, no main test was performed.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
No flash point was observed up to 120.0 °C (corrected value).
Executive summary:

The flash point of the test item (= substance EC 939-455-3 in aqueous commercial product) was investigated in a GLP-compliant study performed in accordance with EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point) using a closed-cup equilibrium method. No flash point was observed up to 120.0 °C, temperature at which the test item started to boil.

The study was performed on a commercial product (aqueous solution) as the substance EC 939-455-3 is manufactured and used in a liquid form.

Description of key information

The flash point of the substance 1-Propanaminium, N-(3-aminopropyl)-2-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyl-3-sulfo-, N-(C8-18(even numbered) acyl) derivs., hydroxides, inner salts (EC 939-455-3) in aqueous solution was investigated in a GLP-compliant study (Colombies, 2013) performed in accordance with EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point) using a closed-cup equilibrium method. No flash point was observed up to 120.0 °C, temperature at which the mixture started to boil.

The study was performed on a commercial product (aqueous solution) as the substance EC 939-455-3 is manufactured and used in a liquid form.

Additional information

The flash point of the substance 1-Propanaminium, N-(3-aminopropyl)-2-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyl-3-sulfo-, N-(C8-18(even numbered) acyl) derivs., hydroxides, inner salts (EC 939-455-3) in aqueous solution was investigated in a GLP-compliant study (Colombies, 2013) performed in accordance with standard methods, without deviations. The study is considered as reliable (Klimisch 1) and was selected as key study for the endpoint.
