Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

A number of published values are available for the flashpoint of 2 -(2 -butoxyethoxy)ethyl acetate. All but one of the values available are closed cup and the single open cup value falls within the range of the c/c measurements. The values available, most of which appear to be measured using a known method (DIN, IP or ASTM), span the range 102 -116C. No single value is from a definitive reliable source but a weight of evidence allows an appropriate value for the flash point to be selected with confidence. This is a good enough approach for classification and labelling purposes and risk characterisation. As a conservative approach, lowest available value from the supporting studies is used to determine the key parameter even though this is identified as a reliability (4) study. It can be concluded with confidence that flammability is not an important property of this substance.
