Flash point
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- 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:
- data from handbook or collection of data
- Remarks:
- Database with recommended values, approved for substance hazard assessments and subject to peer review.
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Experimental measurement (data is taken from a secondary source, information about the methodology is not available)
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Type of method:
- closed cup
- Flash point:
- 71 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 1 013 mBar
- Remarks on result:
- other: atmospheric pressure was assumed
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- A flash point value of 71°C at atmospheric pressure is reported in a handbook which has been subject to peer-review and in which is recommended for the use of chemical safety assessments by the PTB Germany. The result is considered to be reliable

Description of key information
Flash point: 71°C
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 71 °C
Additional information
In 2010 the German Physical Standards Institute (PTB) has issued a recommended flash point for 3 -methoxy-3 -methyl-butan-1 -ol with the result FP = 71°C measured with closed cup apparatus, which was used as key study.
Other flashpoints are cited in the secondary literature range from: +68°C (MSDS Kuraray (2004)) to +71°C (MSDS Sigma Aldrich (2004)).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
