Results and discussion
Flash point
- Flash point:
- 45 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 101.325 kPa
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Tetramethylenediamine has a boiling point of 158°C -159°C and a flashpoint of 45°C. Therefore it should be labeled as a flammable liquid.
The boiling point in combination with the flashpoint are the criteria for classification a liquid as flammable.
Tetramethylene diamine does not fullfill the criteria of a flammable liquid as described in the CLP directive table
Category 1, - extremely flammable liquid (flash point of <23ºC and boiling point =35ºC (e.g. diethyl ether, carbon
disulphide), as
Category 2 - highly flammable liquid and vapour if they have a flash point of
<23ºC and boiling point >35ºC (e.g. petrol, acetone)
Category 3 - flammable liquid and vapour =23°C and =60ºC - Executive summary:
Tetramethylenediamine has a boiling point of 158°C -159°C and a flashpoint of 45°C.
The boiling point in combination with the flashpoint are the criteria for classification a liquid as flammable.
Tetramethylenediamine fullfills the criteria of a flammable liquid.
More details about criteria see CLP directive 1272/2008 EC table 2.6.1
Table 2.6.1 Criteria for flammable liquids (ref EC-regulation1272/2008 EC L353/60)
Category
Criteria 1 flash point <23ºC and boiling point = 35ºC
2 flash point <23ºC and boiling point >35ºC
3 flash point =23°C and =60ºC
