Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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 of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Study period:
09-Jun-2015
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 2719 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method)
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
equilibrium method
Flash point:
> 110 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa

Calculation

Determination of the corrected flash-point: TC = T0 + 0.25 x (101.3 – p)

 

TC = corrected flash point to the standard atmospheric pressure (101.3 kPa)

T0 = measured flash point at actual atmospheric pressure

p = actual atmospheric pressure [kPa]

Remarks

At standard conditions (20 °C) the test substance is solid. The melting temperature is 25.7°C (see Wacker Final Report N-0002134136-P). Therefore the solid test substance is first heated above the melting temperature and then applied as liquid for the flash point test.

Conclusions:
A flash point value of > 110 °C at 1013 hPa was determined in a reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol. It was not compliant with GLP.
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
09-Jun-2015
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Justification for type of information:
At standard conditions (20 °C) the test substance is solid. The melting temperature is 25.7°C, therefore the flash point test is considered valid.

Flash point apparatus:
Pensky-Martens apparatus

At standard conditions (20 °C) the test substance is solid. The melting temperature is 25.7°C (see Wacker Final Report N-0002134136-P). Therefore the solid test substance is first heated above the melting temperature and then applied as liquid for the flash point test.

Conclusions:
A flash point value of 114°C at 1013 hPa was determined in a reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol. It was not compliant with GLP.

Description of key information

Chlorodimethyloctadecylsilane: 114.0°C at 1013 hPa (EU Method A.9)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
114 °C

Additional information

A flash point value of 114.0°C at 1013 hPa was determined using Pensky-Martens apparatus (closed cup) according to EU test method A.9. This is supported by a measured value of >110°C at 1013 hPa determined using the equilbrium method according to EU test method A.9.
