Reference
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
15/01/2018 - 09/05/2018
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 2719 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of method:
closed cup
Flash point apparatus:
other: Eraflash flash-point tester (Eralytics, Vienna, Austria)
Specific details on test material used for the study:
Batch: BSC-433-4-0488-5
Purity/Composition: 99.4%
Key result
Flash point:
ca. -15 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 1 013 hPa

The test cup was heated at a rate of 5 ± 0.5 °C/minute. Starting at -15 °C, an attempt was made to ignite the vapour of the test item. A flash-point was observed at the first attempt to ignite the vapour of the test item, and this was observed in two separate preliminary tests. The flash-point of the test item was <-15 °C.

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (highly flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The flash point of the hexa-1,5 -diene was measured to be <-15 °C at 1013 hPa in a study run to EU Method A.9 (closed cup).
Executive summary:

The flash point of the hexa-1,5 -diene was measured to be <-15 °C at 1013 hPa in a study run to EU Method A.9 (closed cup).

Description of key information

The flash point of the hexa-1,5-diene was measured to be <-15 °C at 1013 hPa in a study run to EU Method A.9 (closed cup).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
-15 °C
