Endpoint:
auto-flammability
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
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: Lowest temperature determined at which substance vaporizes to form an ignitable mixture in air
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Lowest temperature determined at which substance vaporizes to form an ignitable mixture in air
GLP compliance:
not specified
Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Name of test material (as cited in study report): Isopentyl Benzoate
- Molecular formula: C12 H16 O2
- Molecular weight : 192.256 g/mol
- Smiles notation: c1(C(OCCC(C)C)=O)ccccc1
- InChl : 1S/C12H16O2/c1-10(2)8-9-14-12(13)11-6-4-3-5-7-11/h3-7,10H,8-9H2,1-2H3
- Substance type: organic
- Physical state: Liquid
Remarks on result:
other: Isopentyl Benzoate ignites only when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of 950°C is brought in contact with it.Thus it can be concluded that substance is flammable only at high temperature of about 950°C.
Conclusions:
Isopentyl Benzoate did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°Cpressure of 966 hPa. This indicates that Isopentyl Benzoate is not auto-flammable.
Executive summary:

Isopentyl Benzoate did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 27°Cpressure of 966 hPa. This indicates that Isopentyl Benzoate is not auto-flammable.
