Description of key information
The flashpoint of dicumyl peroxide has been measured to be 130.7 °C using the open cup method (ISO 2592).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 130.7 °C
Additional information
According to the data from this experimental test, performed in accordance with the open cup method ISO 2592, the average flash point of dicumyl peroxide is 130.7 °C at 101.3 kPa.
It has to be noted that the substance decomposes before the flashpoint is reached. The Self-Accelerating Decomposition Temperature (SADT) of the substance is 80 °C (reference SADT: CLP regulations 2.15.2.3 and UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria, 5th revised edition, sub-sections 28.1, 28.2, 28.3 and Table 28.3.).
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.
