May 28, 2012
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 2719 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method)
Version / remarks:
2002
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
closed cup
Remarks:
(Pensky-Martens closed cup method)
Key result
Flash point:
68 °C
Atm. press.:
101.1 kPa

The results of determination of flash point:

Preliminary test: 66 ºC

Test 1: 68 ºC

Test 2: 67 ºC.

T = C + 0.25 (101.3 – p)

where:

C – determined flash point after including a thermometer deviation = 67.7 °C;

p – ambient barometric pressure = 101.1 [kPa].

The flash point of 2-methylcyclohexyl acetate was 68,0 °C.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash point of 2-methylcyclohexyl acetate was 68.0 °C at 101.1 kPa.
Executive summary:

Determination of flash point was performed according to standard PN-EN ISO 2719: 2007” Determination of flash point – Pensky-Martens closed cup method.” which corresponds to EU method A.9. The flash point of 2-methylcyclohexyl acetate was determined to be 68.0 °C at 101.1 kPa.

Description of key information

Key study: Test method PN-EN ISO 2719:2007. GLP study. The flash point of 2-methylcyclohexyl acetate was 68 ºC at 101.1 kPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
68 °C

Additional information

Key study: Determination of flash point was performed according to standard PN-EN ISO 2719: 2007 which corresponds to EU method A.9. The flash point of 2-methylcyclohexyl acetate was determine to be 68.0 °C at 101.1 kPa.

This result was supported by Hawley handbook per review, where it is stated that the flash point of 2-methylcyclohexyl acetate is 64 ºC.
