Reference
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
08 Jul 2011
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ASTM D93 (Standard test methods for flash point by pensky-martens closed cup tester)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
non-equilibrium method closed cup
Remarks:
Pensky-Martens apparatus
Flash point:
100 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa

The pressure 1013 hPa is assumed since the pressure should be corrected to 1013 hPa by the system.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Executive summary:

The flash point for the substance 2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethyl acetate (CAS 112-15-2) was determined in an closed cup system resulting in a value of 100°C at 1013 hPa.

Description of key information

100°C at ca. 1013 hPa

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
100 °C

Additional information

The flash point for the substance 2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethyl acetate (CAS 112-15-2) was determined in an closed cup system. The value (116 °C) reported within literature is supporting.
