Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash point was determined to be 73.5°C under atmospheric pressure (1013 hPa).
Executive summary:

The flash point was determined in 2009 using a closed cup Pensky-Martens apparatus. Based on the chemical structure and practical experience with the substance, it can be assumed that the substance is stable at room temperature and does not evolve any flammable gases in contact with water or humid air. Therefore, EEC tests A.12 and A.13 were not performed. The flash point was determined to be 73.5°C.

Description of key information

The flash point was determined to be 73.5°C at atmospheric pressure, using the Pensky Martens closed cup method.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
73.5 °C
