Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
flash point
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across based on grouping of substances (category approach)
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Study period:
09 July 2012
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
GLP - Guideline study. According to the ECHA guidance document "Practical guide 6: How to report read-across and categories (March 2010)", the reliability was changed from RL1 to RL2 to reflect the fact that this study was conducted on a read-across substance.

Pressure was not reported. Data is estimated, because the test was conducted under ambient condition using an open cup system.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met

Description of key information

219-269 °C at ca.1013 hPa based on read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
244 °C

Additional information

The flash point for the substance Decanoic acid, mixed esters with neopentyl glycol and octanoic acid (CAS 70693 -32 -2) was determined by weight of evidence approach with two similar substances: 2,2 -dimethyl-1,3 -propanediyl dioctanoate (CAS 31335 -74 -7) and Fatty acids, C6 -18, 2,2 -dimethyl-1,3 -propanediyl esters (CAS 91031 -27 -5).
