Description of key information
Flash point: 7°C (ASTM D-56)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 7 °C
Additional information
A closed-cup flash point value of 7°C was reported for the substance in a study report according to an appropriate national standard method (ASTM D-56), but not in compliance with any known quality system. The result is considered to be reliable and is selected as key study.
The key study is supported by a flash point value of <79°C which was reported for the substance based on an open-cup method using ASTM D-92 test method.
In a secondary source to which reliability could not be assigned, a flash point value of -9°C was reported for the substance.
A flash point of 7°C and boiling point of 84.4°C indicate that the substance should be classified as a flammable liquid (Category 2) according to the criteria of Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
