Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Flash point = 59°C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- flammable
Additional information
As the substance is a liquid, the relevant test for flammable properties is the flash point measurement. A reliable experimental study is presented under point 4.11.
Based on the chemical structure of the major components and experience, no flammable properties are anticipated if contact with air or water, therefore specific studies were deemed unnecessary.
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008 criteria, the measured flash point lies between the threshold values of 23 and 60°C, therefore the substance is classified as FLAMMABLE LIQUID category 3 (H226).
According to Directive 67/548/EEC criteria, the measured flash point is above the threshold value of 55°C, therefore the substance is NOT classified.
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.
