Specific details on test material used for the study:

- Name of test material (as cited in study report): 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline
- Molecular formula: C7 H8 N2 O2
- Molecular weight: 152.152 g/mol
- Smiles notation: c1(cc(c(N)cc1)C)[N+](=O)[O-]
- InChI: 1S/C7H8N2O2/c1-5-4-6(9(10)11)2-3-7(5)8/h2-4H,8H2,1H3

Test procedure:

other: not specified

Remarks on result:

other: 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline not ignited when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C was brought in contact with it.

Interpretation of results:

other: non flammable

Conclusions:

2-methyl-4-nitroaniline does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus it can be concluded that 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline was considered non-flammable for chemical safety assessment.

Executive summary:

2-methyl-4-nitroaniline does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus it can be concluded that 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline was considered non-flammable for chemical safety assessment.
