Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- According to regulation (EU) No 1907/2006 Annex VII, flash point does not need to be conducted if the substance is inorganic; or the substance only contains volatile organic components with flash-points above 100°C for aqueous solutions; or the estimated flash-point is above 200°C; or the flash-point can be accurately predicted by interpolation from existing characterised materials. The melting point of the test item is 200-237°C; therefore testing the flash point of the test item is scientifically unjustified.
According to REACh Guidance R7a 7.1.9.4 flash point is only relevant to liquids and low melting point solids. The test material is not a low melting point solid (the melting point of the test material is 200-237 degrees C) or a liquid and therefore testing for this endpoint is scientifically unjustified. - Executive summary:
This endpoint is being waived as testing for flash point is considered scientifically unjustified.

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.
