Description of key information

The flash point of shale oil light fraction is < 20 ºC.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

As the flash point is <20 ºC, but the boiling point is >35 ºC, the substance should be classified as a category 2 flammable liquid with hazard phrase H225 in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
