Flash point
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flash point of flammable liquids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 13th January, 2010
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: A GLP study carried out to the relevant guidelines.
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Type of method:
- closed cup
- Flash point:
- 151 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 101.1 kPa
- Conclusions:
- The flash point of hexyl salicylate was determined as 151°C.
- Executive summary:
The sample was heated at a slow, constant rate (5 K.min-1) with continual stirring in a closed cup. A small flame was directed into the cup containing the sample, at regular intervals, with simultaneous interruption of stirring. The flash point was the lowest temperature at which the application of a flame resulted in an ignition of the vapour, above the sample. The test was conducted according to EC 440/2008 incorporating EC’s “Classification, Packaging & Labelling of Dangerous Substances in the European Union” Part 2, Testing methods, Jan ’97. Directive 92/69, Annex V to Council Directive 67/548/EC.
The flash point of hexyl salicylate was determined as 151°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 151 °C
Additional information
The flash point of hexyl salicylate was determined as 151°C.
