Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
The substance is a liquid therefore the flammability will be deducted from the flash point.
Furthermore, no testing is required for aerosols, flammable solids/gases, pyrophoric solids and self-heating properties as the substance is a liquid.
Based on chemical structure pyrophoric properties and flammability in contact with water are not to be expected.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- flammable
Additional information
Flammable liquid
The test on the flammability (Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.10) was not performed as the test substance is a liquid. For liquids the primary value for ease of ignition is the flash point conducted using Method A9 ‘Flash Point Method’ of Council Regulation (EC) No 440/2008. The result of the flash point test is used to allocate a liquid substance into the appropriate flammability class.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008. The flash point was determined to be 30.5 °C (please refer to section 4.11). As a result the substance is considered to be classified for flammable liquids: category 3 (flammable liquid and vapour) under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, as amended for the ninth time in Regulation (EU) No 2016/1179.
Furthermore, the substance is not considered to be classified as readily combustible solid, self-heating substance, substances which in contact with water emit flammable gases, pyrophoric liquid, pyrophoric solid, flammable gases or as aerosol.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
