Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
flammable solids
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a liquid
Endpoint:
pyrophoric liquids
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days) and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied
Endpoint:
self-heating substances / mixtures
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
other:
Endpoint:
substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the experience in production or handling shows that the substance does not react with water, e.g. the substance is manufactured with water or washed with water

Description of key information

flammable liquid
no pyrophoricity
no flammability in contact with water


not self-heating

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
flammable

Additional information

Based on flash point and boiling point the substance is a flammable liquid.
Based on the chemical structure and experience in handling and use, pyrophoricity and flammability in contact with water are not expected.

The substance is a liquid, and as such, does not show self-heating behaviour if it is not absorbed on a large surface.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The available data on the flash point and the boiling point of the test substance meet the criteria for classification as flammable liquid cat. 3 (H226) according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008.

The available data on pyrophoricity, flammability in contact with water and self-heating of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification.
