Results and discussion

Flash point
Flash point:
114 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa

Any other information on results incl. tables

- Results preliminary test: the estimated flash-point of the test substance was 110°C.

- Results main study:

Test 1: 116°C

Test 2: 114°C

- As the difference between the results obtained with the two tests was ≤ 2°C, it was concluded that the flash-point of the test substance is the lowest flash-point obtained.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The Pensky-Martens closed cup method was applied for the determination of the flash-point of the substance, in accordance with UN, EC, ISO and ASTM guidelines and according to GLP principles. The flash-point of the test substance was 114°C.
