1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

comparable to guideline study

Justification for type of information:

Experimental test result performed using standard test guidelines

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

other: It is how easily substance can burn or ignite, causing fire or combustion by brief contact with an ignition source.

Principles of method if other than guideline:

It is how easily substance can burn or ignite, causing fire or combustion by brief contact with an ignition source

Specific details on test material used for the study:

- Name of the test chemical : (1S,2S,5R)-5-methyl-2-propan-2-ylcyclohexan-1-ol- Common Name : (+)-Neomenthol- Molecular formula : C10H20O- Molecular weight : 156.267 g/mol- Smiles notation : C[C@@H]1CC[C@H]([C@H](C1)O)C(C)C- InChl : 1S/C10H20O/c1-7(2)9-5-4-8(3)6-10(9)11/h7-11H,4-6H2,1-3H3/t8-,9+,10+/m1/s1- Substance type : Organic- Physical state : Liquid

Key result

Test procedure:

other: Not specified

Remarks on result:

other: (+)-Neomenthol not ignited when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C was brought in contact with it.

Interpretation of results:

other: non flammable

Conclusions:

(+)-Neomenthol does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus it can be concluded that (+)-Neomenthol is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus (+)-Neomenthol was considered non-flammable.

Executive summary:

(+)-Neomenthol does not indicate any ignition when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of approximately 950°C is brought in contact with it. Thus it can be concluded that (+)-Neomenthol is not flammable at high temperature. However since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, thus (+)-Neomenthol was considered non-flammable.
