A correlation has been developed between closed-cup flash points and normal boiling points for silicone compounds. In addition, a more general correlation has been developed between these two properties for the general organic compounds, including silicone compounds. The closed-cup flash points can be predicted using empirical equations. The standard errors of estimate are 11.06 and 11.66°C for silicone compounds and general organic compounds (including silicone compounds), respectively.
