Additional information
Compilation of flash point data on 1,2,3 -Trichloropropane:
Data source | Flash point (°F) | Flash point (°C) | Method |
American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. Documentation of the Threshold Limit Values and Biological Exposure Indices (1986) |
160 -164 | 71 - 73 | closed cup |
Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary. 11th ed. (1987) | 180 | 82 | open cup |
MSDS (2009) | 169 | 76 | closed cup |
Daunderer (1990) | 165 | 74 | no data |
National Institute of Technology and Evaluation (NITE), Japan (2009) | 160 -164 | 71 -73 | closed cup |
Both values of "American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists; Documentation of the Threshold Limit Values and Biological Exposure Indices (1986)" and "Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary, 11th ed. (1987)" were taken from peer reviewed and Klimisch-2 -rated data collections. The values from the 2009 MSDS and from Daunderer are considered Klimisch 4 only. All in all the data set is considered consistent and therefore robust. The slightly different values of the two Klimisch 2 rated data sources can be explained by the different methods used, i.e. closed cup method and open cup method. Eventually the value 160 -164 °F is highlighted; this is also the flash point range given by the "National Institute of Technology and Evaluation (NITE), Japan (2009)", who themselves are referring to "American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists; Documentation of the Threshold Limit Values and Biological Exposure Indices (1986)".
