Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- tetramethylenediamine has a boiling point of 158°C -159°C.
The boiling point is one of the criteria used in assigning a substance to an appropriate flammability
category. Under GHS, substances are classified as Category 1 - extremely flammable liquid and
vapour if they have a flash point of <23ºC and boiling point <35ºC (e.g. diethyl ether, carbon
disulphide) and as Category 2 - highly flammable liquid and vapour if they have a flash point of
<23ºC and boiling point >35ºC (e.g. petrol, acetone).
The boiling point does not influence the classification of tetramethylene diamine. - Executive summary:
Tetramethylenediamine has a boiling point of 158°C -159°C.
The boiling point in combination with the flashpoint are the criteria for classification a liquid as flammable.
Tetramethylenediamine 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).
The boiling point does not influence the classification of tetramethylene diamine.
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).
