Key result
Remarks on result:
other: no flash point until boiling point

GALDEN LMW was tested untill Boiling Point.

Flash point and fire point could not be determined since the sample boiled when subjected to the heat source and the test was terminated.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
No flash point and fire point could be determined for GALDEN LMW.
Executive summary:

GALDEN LMW was tested for flash point and fire point determination according to the method ASTM D92.

The method ASTM D92 was performed together with a list of other standard tests in order to characterize the flammability properties of the product. The purpose of the characterization was to assess if the product meets the approval requirements for use in industrial equipment according to Factory Mutual (FM) insurance company global standards.

Since the sample boiled when subjected to the heat source, flash point and fire point could not be determined and the test was terminated.

Under test conditions, GALDEN LMW does not possess flash and fire points.

Description of key information

Flash point determination of GALDEN LMW was performed  according to the method ASTM D92.
The method includes flash and fire point determination.
Under test conditions, GALDEN LMW does not possess flash and fire points.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

GALDEN LMW was tested for flash point and fire point determination according to the method ASTM D92 "Standard Test Method for Flash and Fire Points by Cleveland Open Cup Tester".

Since the sample boiled when subjected to the heat source, flash point and fire point could not be determined and the test was terminated.

Under test conditions, GALDEN LMW does not possess flash and fire points.
