Reference
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
10/1994
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 1523 (Determination of flash point - Closed cup equilibrium method)
Version / remarks:
2002
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
conducted according ISO 1523: 1983
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The experimental procedure used complied with that specified in Method A.9 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of method:
closed cup
Flash point:
> 245 °C
Atm. press.:
994.1 - 998.8 hPa

Temperature at test start: 20°C

Temperature at test end: 255°C

No flash up to 245°C, then decomposes.

The substance has been determined not to have a flash point below its decomposition temperature.

Conclusions:
For TCPP no flash point was determined below decomposition (245°C).
Executive summary:

In a study conducted according to the international standard method ISO 1523: 1983 (Determination of flash point - Closed cup equilibrium method), TCPP has been determind not to have a flash point below its decomposition temperature of 245°C (Tremain & Bartlett, 1994).

Description of key information

For TCPP no flash point was determined below decomposition (245°C).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
245 °C

Additional information

The stated value should be read > 245 °C (at 994.1 - 998.8 hPa)

In a study conducted according to the international standard method ISO 1523: 1983 (Determination of flash point - Closed cup equilibrium method), TCPP has been determined to have no flash point below its decomposition temperature of 245 °C
