Endpoint:
pyrophoric liquids
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days) and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied
Endpoint:
substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the organic substance does not contain metals or metalloids and hence, the classification procedure does not need to be applied
Endpoint:
flammable liquids: obsolete as covered by section 'Flash point'
Data waiving:
study technically not feasible
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a liquid

Description of key information

Flammable Liquid:

The flash point of test item was higher than 93.0 °C at 100.01kPa determined with close-cup flash point tester according to EC A.9.

Pyrophoric liquids:

The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days).

Substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases:

The study does not need to be conducted because the chemical structure of the substance or mixture does not contain metals or metalloids.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flammability:
not classified

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Flammable Liquid:

Flash point > 93.0 °C.

Therefore in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 section 2.6.1, the substance should not be classified as flammable liquids.

Pyrophoric liquids:

The substance is known to be stable in contact with air at room temperature for prolonged periods of time (days).

Therefore in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 section 2.9.4.1, the classification procedure for pyrophoric liquids need not be applied.

Substances / mixtures which in contact with water emit flammable gases:

The chemical structure of the substance or mixture does not contain metals or metalloids.

Therefore in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 section 2.12.4.1(a), the classification procedure for this classs need not be applied.
