No further details specified in the study report.

During the addition of a small quantity of the test substance to double distilled water (0.5 g/50 ml), no spontaneous ignition took place and no evolution of gas occurred.

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
In conclusion, HATCOL 5127 is incapable of developing a dangerous amount of (flammable) gas in contact with air, damp air or water.
Executive summary:

The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether the reaction of the test substance with water or damp air leads to the development of dangerous amounts of gas or gases which may be highly flammable.

 

The procedure for the determination of the flammability (contact with water) is described in the following guideline:

European Economic Community (EEC), EEC directive 92/69 EEC, Part A, Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties, Ä-12 "Flammability (contact with water), EEC Publication No. L383, December 1992.

 

Substances that, in contact with water or damp air, evolve highly flammable gases in dangerous quantities at a minimum rate of 1litre/kg per hour are highly flammable.

HATCOL 5127 does not contain groups that might lead to evolution of highly flammable gases in dangerous quantities. Furthermore, no metals, transition metals, boron or silicon are present.

 

During the addition of a small quantity of the test substance to double distilled water (0.5 g/50 ml), no spontaneous ignition took place and no evolution of gas occurred.

 

In conclusion, HATCOL 5127 is incapable of developing a dangerous amount of (flammable) gas in contact with air, damp air or water.

Key result
Remarks on result:
no ignition on contact with air (not further specified)

From the structural formula, it can be concluded that HATCOL 5127 is not pyrophoric. The test substance does not contain any chemical group that might lead to spontaneous ignition a short time after coming into contact with air. Furthermore, experience in handling shows that the test substance does not ignite after coming in contact with air at room temperature (circa 20°C).

Interpretation of results:
not classified based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
In conclusion. based on the strctural formula of HATCOL 5127 and on handling experience the substance is not pyrophoric.
Executive summary:

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the pyrophoric properties of the test substance.

 

The procedure for the determination of the pyrophoric properties is described in the following guideline:

European Economic Community (EEC), EEC directive 92169 EEC, Part A, Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties, A-13: "Pyrophoric properties of solids and liquids", EEC Publication No. L383, December 1992.

 

From the structural formula, it can be concluded that HATCOL 5127 is not pyrophoric. The test substance does not contain any chemical group that might lead to spontaneous ignition a short time after coming into contact with air. Furthermore, experience in handling shows that the test substance does not ignite after coming in contact with air at room temperature (circa 20°C).

 

In conclusion. based on the structural formula of HATCOL 5127 and on handling experience the substance is not pyrophoric.

Endpoint:
flammable liquids: obsolete as covered by section 'Flash point'
Data waiving:
study technically not feasible
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a liquid

Additional information

The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether the reaction of the test substance with water or damp air leads to the development of dangerous amounts of gas or gases which may be highly flammable.

Substances that, in contact with water or damp air, evolve highly flammable gases in dangerous quantities at a minimum rate of 1litre/kg per hour are highly flammable.

HATCOL 5127 does not contain groups that might lead to evolution of highly flammable gases in dangerous quantities. Furthermore, no metals, transition metals, boron or silicon are present.

During the addition of a small quantity of the test substance to double distilled water (0.5 g/50 ml), no spontaneous ignition took place and no evolution of gas occurred.

In conclusion, HATCOL 5127 is incapable of developing a dangerous amount of (flammable) gas in contact with air, damp air or water.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the pyrophoric properties of the test substance.

From the structural formula, it can be concluded that HATCOL 5127 is not pyrophoric. The test substance does not contain any chemical group that might lead to spontaneous ignition a short time after coming into contact with air. Furthermore, experience in handling shows that the test substance does not ignite after coming in contact with air at room temperature (circa 20°C).

In conclusion. based on the structural formula of HATCOL 5127 and on handling experience the substance is not pyrophoric.

Justification for classification or non-classification

No classification, the substance is a non flammable liquid.

The substance is a liquid with a flash point of > 200 °C (> 60 °C). Based on the available studies, pyrophoricity and flammability in contact with water are not expected.
