Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (highly flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The flashpoint of Platinum, 1,3-diethenyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane complexes/Karstedt concentrate was determined to be 17 ± 2°C.
Executive summary:

This is a GLP study following EU method A9 and is considered suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint. The flashpoint of Platinum, 1,3-diethenyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane complexes/Karstedt concentrate was determined to be 17 ± 2°C. The boiling temperature has been assessed to be > 35°C for the purpose of classification. The test item is classified in Category 2 for flammable liquids in accordance with CLP regulations.

Description of key information

The flashpoint of Platinum, 1,3-diethenyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane complexes/Karstedt concentrate (in solution) was determined as 17 ± 2°C at 101.325kPa. The test item is classified in Category 2 for flammable liquids in accordance with CLP regulations.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
17 °C

Additional information

The result is taken from a GLP compliant study following EU method A9 and is considered suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint (Atwal and Tremain 2011). This is considered to be suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint. The flashpoint of Platinum, 1,3-diethenyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane complexes/Karstedt concentrate was determined to be 17 ± 2°C. The boiling temperature has been assessed to be > 35°C for the purpose of classification. The test item is classified in Category 2 for flammable liquids in accordance with CLP regulations.
