Specific details on test material used for the study:
SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source and lot/batch No.of test material: PDC Lot 1, Pail 2
- Expiration date of the lot/batch: 23 Mar 2006
- Purity: 99.959%
- Synonyms: MTDID 665
STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: room temperature in the dark
Key result
Atm. press.:
102.1 kPa
Remarks on result:
no flash point - measurement carried out until boiling temperature
Remarks:
sample boiled at 97 °C

Boiling was confirmed visually.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
HFE s-601 has no flash point below its boiling temperature or 97 °C by Pensky-Martens closed cup test (EU method A.9).
Executive summary:

No flash-point could be determined using the Pensky-Martens closed cup method. No flammable vapour/air mixture was produced in the test vessel at temperatures below boiling, which was observed visually at 97 °C, 102.1 kPa. The study was conducted in accordance with EU method A.9 and was GLP compliant; therefore the study is considered reliable without restrictions and is suitable for Classification & Labeling and Risk Assessment.

Description of key information

HFE s-601 has no flash point below its boiling temperature or 97 °C by Pensky-Martens closed cup test (EU method A.9).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

No flash-point could be determined using the Pensky-Martens closed cup method. No flammable vapour/air mixture was produced in the test vessel at temperatures below boiling, which was observed visually at 97 °C, 102.1 kPa. The study was conducted in accordance with EU method A.9 and was GLP compliant; therefore the study is considered reliable without restrictions and is suitable for Classification & Labeling and Risk Assessment.
