Conclusions:
From the available data of Haz Map database, the flash point of 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, monopotassium salt (877-24-7) was determined to be >200 degree C.
Executive summary:

As per the available data for flash point from Haz- Map database, the flash point value of 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, monopotassium salt (877-24-7) was determined to be >200 degree C. Based on criteria mentioned in CLP regulation the chemical has flash point >than 60 degree C hence the substance 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, monopotassium salt(877-24-7)was considered to be non-flammable.

Description of key information

As per the available data for flash point fromHaz- Map database, the flash point value of 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, monopotassium salt(877-24-7)was determined to be >200 degree C. Based on criteria mentioned in CLP regulation the chemical has flash point >than 60 degree C hence the substance 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, monopotassium salt(877-24-7)was considered to be non-flammable.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
197.3 °C

Additional information

Various studies for the Potassium hydrogen phthalate (CAS No. 877-24-7) were reviewed to summarize the following information:

The flash point determination of Potassium hydrogen phthalate (CAS No. 877-24-7)was done following closed cup method using Pensky-Martens flash point apparatus. The test was conducted in replicates and mean flash point was found to be 197.3°C at 977.0hPa.

As per the available data for flash point from Haz- Map database, the flash point value of Potassium hydrogen phthalate (877-24-7)was determined to be >200 degree C.

As per the available data for flash point from laboratory report and databases, the flash point value determined was in range from197.3 degree C to >200 degree C. As the data from labortory has K1 reliability and the test was performed using OECD guidelines which has the value of flash point as 197 °C at 977.0 hPa within the range thus considered as key study for the chemical safety assessment. Also based on criteria mentioned in CLP regulation the chemical has flash point >than 60 degree C hence the substance Potassium hydrogen phthalate (CAS No. 877-24 -7) was considered to be non-flammable.
