Conclusions:
The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 122 ± 2 °C.

Description of key information

The flash point of the substance was determined in a GLP study according to test method EC A.9 (K1, Envigo, 2018). The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 122 ± 2 °C using a closed cup equilibrium method.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
122 °C
