Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

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:
other: Peer-reviewed article published in established scientific journal.
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Deviations:
not specified
GLP compliance:
not specified
Type of method:
equilibrium method closed cup
Key result
Flash point:
>= -15 - <= -10 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa

The flash point varies according to the composition of the mixture.

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (highly flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The flashpoint depends on the composition of the azeotropic binary system, with a range between -15 and -10 °C.

Description of key information

The flashpoint depends on the composition of the azeotropic binary system, with a range between -15 and -10 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The information is taken from a peer reviewed publication and so can be considered reliable and suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint. The flashpoint depends on the composition of the azeotropic binary system, with a range between -15 and -10 °C. Hence, the test item is classified as highly flammable liquid.
