Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Determination of spectral data and physico-chemical properties followed OECD guidelines.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 2719 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method)
Version / remarks:
2002
Deviations:
not specified

Remarks:
Pensky-Martens flash point tester
Key result
Flash point:
> 135 °C

760 mm Hg
Remarks on result:
other: Flash point of the substance could not be determined because it undergoes polymerization and/or decomposition at 140°C prior to reaching the flash point.

Test substance



No flashing up to 135°C


Conclusions:
Flash point of the substance could not be determined because it undergoes polymerization and/or decomposition at 140°C prior to reaching the flash point.
Executive summary:

The Flash point of the substance could not be determined because it undergoes polymerization and/or decomposition at 140°C prior to reaching the flash point. The testing was stopped at 135°C in order to prevent the test sample from gelling. The exact flash point could not be determined but will be higher than 135°C (Cytec, 2011)

Description of key information

The flash point was determined according to ISO Method 2719 (Cytec, 2011).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
135 °C

Additional information

The flash point of test substance could not be accurately determined because it undergoes polymerization and/or decomposition at approximately 140°C prior to reaching the flash point. Therefore the flash point was considered to be higher than 135°C.
