2-ethylhexyl 12-hydroxyoctadecanoate

Flash point

Link to relevant study record(s)

Reference

Endpoint:

flash point of flammable liquids

Type of information:

(Q)SAR

Adequacy of study:

weight of evidence

Reliability:

2 (reliable with restrictions)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

results derived from a valid (Q)SAR model and falling into its applicability domain, with adequate and reliable documentation / justification

Justification for type of information:

1. SOFTWARE
: Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (TEST) V. 4.2.1

2. MODEL (incl. version number)
: consensu method (The predicted toxicity is estimated by taking an average of the predicted toxicities from each of the above QSAR methodologies).

3. SMILES OR OTHER IDENTIFIERS USED AS INPUT FOR THE MODEL
: C(=O)(CCCCCCCCCCC(CCCCCC)O)OCC(CCCC)CC

4. SCIENTIFIC VALIDITY OF THE (Q)SAR MODEL
The flash point is defined as the lowest temperature at which a chemical can vaporize to form an ignitable mixture in air. A dataset of 8362 chemicals was compiled from lookchem.com. Chemicals with flash points greater than 1000°C were omitted from the data set. The modeled property was the flash point in °C.
Statistical External Validation
For this property, the consensus method gives the best results in terms of prediction accuracy and coverage.

Please, refer to User’s Guide for T.E.S.T. (version 4.2) (Toxicity Estimation Software Tool) A Program to Estimate Toxicity from Molecular Structure, the user's guide describes the methods used by TEST to predict toxicity and physical properties (including the new mode of action based method used to predict acute aquatic toxicity). It describes all of the experimental data sets included in the tool. It gives the prediction results for each endpoint and physical property for the external data sets.

5. APPLICABILITY DOMAIN
Please, refer to User’s Guide for T.E.S.T. (version 4.2) (Toxicity Estimation Software Tool) A Program to Estimate Toxicity from Molecular Structure, the user's guide describes the methods used by TEST to predict toxicity and physical properties (including the new mode of action based method used to predict acute aquatic toxicity). It describes all of the experimental data sets included in the tool. It gives the prediction results for each endpoint and physical property for the external data sets.

6. ADEQUACY OF THE RESULT
The result is considered adeguate for C&L procedure and for risk assessment. Moreover, the result of the prediction is highlighted in green: that means the prediction is reliable.
