Reference
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: GLP study, OECD guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
This deviation was not considered to have affected the quality or the interpretation of the results obtained.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 3679 (Determination of flash point - Rapid equilibrium closed cup method)
Version / remarks:
2004
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Remarks:
2003-03-27
Type of method:
closed cup
Key result
Flash point:
ca. 224.5 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 101.3 kPa
Conclusions:
Mean flash-point of the test item (corrected at the pressure of 101.3 kPa) is
224.5°C ± 2.0°C.
Remark: taken into account the physical state of the test item (sticky paste), the required
volume to use for the assay could not have been taken accurately.
Executive summary:

FLASH-POINT

In compliance with Commission Directive 92/69/EEC - A9 method (1992) ISO Standard 3679 (1983)


AMENDMENTS

No amendment to the study plan was requested.


DEVIATIONS

The following deviation was recorded: The test item was directly sampled from its container made of plastic, and the empty part of the container could not have been determined. This deviation was not considered to have affected the quality or the interpretation of the results obtained.


RESULTS

Mean flash-point of the test item (corrected at the pressure of 101.3 kPa) is 224.5°C ± 2.0°C. Remark: taken into account the physical state of the test item (sticky paste), the required volume to use for the assay could not have been taken accurately.
