Reference
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Remarks:
The study was conducted using a relevant test method but not in compliance with GLP.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Version / remarks:
Council Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 dated 30 May 2008
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 3679 (Determination of flash point - Rapid equilibrium closed cup method)
Version / remarks:
2004. Remark: 2nd ed 1983-12-01
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO No., other: ISO 3680 (3trd ed 1983-06- 15)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO No., other: ASTM D3278-96 (October 1997)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO No., other: ASTM D3828-98 (January 1999)
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
equilibrium method closed cup
Flash point:
142 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa

Result:

FP observed : 141°C at 986 hPa (P atmospheric)

FP corrected = FP observed + 0.23*(101.3 kPa – P atmospheric kPa)

FP corrected : 142°C at 1013 hPa

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
GHS and EU-CLP criteria not met
Conclusions:
A flash point of 142±2°C was determined for the substance using a relevant test method. The result is considered to be reliable.

Description of key information

Flash Point:  142±2°C at 1013 hPa (ISO 3679)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
142 °C

Additional information

A flash point value of 142±2°C at 1013 hPa was determined for the substance using a relevant test method but not in compliance with GLP. The result is considered to be reliable.

A flash point of 142±2°C and a measured boiling point of 230°C, indicate that the substance should not be classified as a flammable liquid according to the criteria of Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
