Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Data waiving:
study technically not feasible
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because decomposition occurred during the melting point study

Waiving

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

According to Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment (Chap R.7a: Endpoint specific guidance), the flash point is only a relevant property for liquids and low melting point solids. Further, if the substance decomposes before melting, determination of flash point can be considered technically not feasible. As the substance was seen to undergo decomposition at approx 250 °C while testing for melting point, the study was considered to be technically not feasible.
