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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Flammability
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flammable solids
- 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
This substance is a liquid and therefore this endpoint is not relevant as it has been superceded by flash point and autoflammability.
There is no data available for 2,3 -dimethylbutane. Data is available for Hydrocarbons, C6, isoalkanes, <5%, n-hexane and Isohexane and this data is used for read across, based on an analogue approach to 2,3 -dimethylbutane.
The upper and lower flammability ranges for Hydrocarbons, C6, isoalkanes, <5% n-hexane and Isohexane are 1.0 and 7.4 % v/v.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flammability:
- flammable
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
There is no data available for 2,3 -Dimethylbutane. Data is available for Hydrocarbons, C6, isoalkanes, <5% n-hexane and Isohexane and this data is used for read across to 2,3 -Dimethylbutane.
Based on available read across data, 2,3 -Dimethylbutane warrants classification as Category 2 for flammability (H225) under the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP).
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.
