Description of key information
2-tert-butylhydroquinone was considered non-flammable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- non flammable
Additional information
From the experimental value of flammability, 2-tert-butylhydroquinone ignited when the flame of bunsen burner having temperature of 950°C was brought in contact with it. Thus, it can be concluded that this substance is flammable only at high temperature of about 950°C. However, since such high temperatures are not found under normal circumstances of transportation and use, 2-tert-butylhydroquinone was considered non-flammable.
Justification for classification or non-classification
2-tert-butylhydroquinone was considered non-flammable.
