Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flash point
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- comparable to guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- ISO No., other: OECD 103
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The flash point of a flammable liquid is the lowest temperature at which there will be enough flammable vapor to ignite when an ignition source is applied.
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- closed cup
- Flash point apparatus:
- Pensky-Martens apparatus
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- - IUPAC name: Benzyl phenylacetate
- Molecular formula: C15 H14 O2
- Molecular weight: 226.2736 g/mol
- Smiles: c1(CC(OCc2ccccc2)=O)ccccc1
- InChI: 1S/C15H14O2/c16-15(11-13-7-3-1-4-8-13)17-12-14-9-5-2-6-10-14/h1-10H,11-12H2
- Substance type: Organic
- Physical state: liquid - Key result
- Flash point:
- 91.6 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 982 hPa
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Non-Flammable
- Conclusions:
- The mean flash point of Benzyl phenylacetate(CAS No. 102-16-9) is 91.6°C at 982.0hPa.
- Executive summary:
The flash point determination of Benzyl phenylacetate (CAS No. 102-16-9)was done following closed cup method using Pensky-Martens flash point apparatus. The test was conducted in replicates and mean flash point was determined to be 91.6°C at 982.0hPa. Based on criteria mentioned in CLP regulation the chemical has flash point >than 60 degree C hence the substance was considered to be non-flammable.

Additional information
The flash point determination of Benzyl phenylacetate (CAS No. 102-16-9) was done following closed cup method using Pensky-Martens flash point apparatus. The test was conducted in replicates and mean flash point was determined to be 91.6°C at 982.0hPa.As laboratory data available has K1 reliability was considered as key study which was supported by handbook data and pubchem, the flash Point of the benzyl phenylacetate (102 -16 -9) was determined to be >100°C and >93.33 degree C.
Based on criteria mentioned in CLP regulation the chemical has flash point >than 60 degree C hence the substance was considered to be non-flammable.
