Description of key information
Data waiving (study technically not feasible): the study does not need to be conducted because the flash point is only relevant for liquids and low melting point solids. Nevertheless, available data from peer reviewed handbooks report a flash point of 92ºC and 104ºC.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 92 °C
Additional information
The following data was available for the test item: According to The dictionary of substance and their effects, the flash point of the test item is 92ºC. According to Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, the flash point of the test item is 104ºC.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
