Description of key information
Fusel oil: Highly flammable
no pyrophoricity
no flammability in contact with water
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Based on flash point and boiling point the substance is a highly flammable liquid. Based on the chemical structure and experience in handling and use, pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not expected.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on flash point (12 °C) and boiling point (>60 °C), the substance is considered to be highly flammable liquid and vapour. According to CLP classification criteria, the substance needs to be classified as Flam liquid Cat.2. According to the Directive 67/548/EEC, the substance needs to be classified as highly flammable, R11.
Basedon experience in handling and use and the chemical structure, pyrophoricity and flammability on contact with water are not to be expected.
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.
