Description of key information
The flash point of 1,6-dichlorohexane was determined to be 74°C at 1013 hPa.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 74 °C
Additional information
The flash point of 1,6-dichlorohexane was consistently reported from different literature sources to be 73 -77°C. The flash point as reported in Knovel Critical tables second Edition originates from an experimental study according to Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.9 and EPA OPPTS 830.6315. In addition an estimation using QSAR method was done using ACD Labs software. The flash point of 1,6-dichlorohexane was calculated to be also 74°C. Thus the result of the key study is regarded as reliable and 74°C was chosen as key parameter.
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.
