Reference
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
10/12/2014
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Conducted at a GLP accredited laboratory
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of method:
closed cup
Flash point apparatus:
Pensky-Martens apparatus
Flash point:
> 225 °C
Atm. press.:
101.6 kPa
Remarks on result:
other: Closed Cup Flash Point Temperature : > 225°C. The sample started to boil at approximately 210°C producing grey vapours which extinguished the test flame. The test was terminated at 225°C.

 180 -225*   101.6  n  y

* due to sample boiling higher test temperature could not be attained and therefore testing was terminated

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Closed Cup Flash Point Temperature : > 225 °C.
The sample started to boil at approximately 210°C producing grey vapours which extinguished the test flame. The test was terminated at 225°C.

Description of key information

Closed Cup Flash Point Temperature : > 225°C. The sample started to boil at approximately 210°C producing grey vapours which extinguished the test flame. The test was terminated at 225°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Closed Cup Flash Point Temperature : > 225°C. The sample started to boil at approximately 210°C producing grey vapours which extinguished the test flame. The test was terminated at 225°C.
