Reference
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Deviations:
not specified
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
closed cup
Flash point:
ca. 108.5 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 101.3 kPa

Interpretation and Results

Normalising of the flash point: Flash point (Tc) Tc = To + 0.25 (101.3 -p)

To = flash point of the test substance at ambient atmospheric pressure [°C]; P= ambient atmospheric pressure [kPa]

Normalizing the value of 108°C we obtain: 108.5 °C

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
non-flammable liquid
Executive summary:

In the non-GLP Klimisch 1 study according to EU method A.9 the flash point was determined to be 108.5°C. Since the flash point is > 60°C the 2,6 -DTBP is a non-flammable liquid.

Description of key information

The flash point of 2,6 -di-tert-butylphenol is 108.5°C

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
108.5 °C

Additional information

In the non-GLP Klimisch 1 study according to EU method A.9 the flash point was determined to be 108.5°C. Since the flash point is > 60°C the 2,6 -DTBP is a non-flammable liquid.
