- Atm. press.:
- 1 010 hPa
- Remarks on result:
- other: mean measured flash point corrected to ambient pressure and rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The test item has a flash point of 82.0°C.
- Executive summary:
The flash point of the test substance was assessed according to EU Method A.9, closed cup method Pensky-Martens apparatus. The preliminary test indicated a flash point of 82°C. This temperature was taken as a starting point for the main test. The flash point was found to be 82.0°C, the mean of 2 measurements, corrected to atmospheric pressure and rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C.
Reference
The preliminary experiment indicated ignition at 82°C, at 1010 hPa.
The results of the main test are:
| Sample weight (mg) | Temperature (°C) | Ignition | Atmospheric pressure (hPa) | flash point corrected (°C) |
| 57.25 | 83 | + | 1010.0 | 83.08 |
| 57.18 | 81 | + | 1010.1 | 81.07 |
The mean measured flash point is corrected to the ambient pressure to be 82.07 °C.
The resulting average corrected flash point rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C is 82.0 °C.
Description of key information
For this endpoint one study is available in which, the flash point of the test item was assessed according to EU Method A.9 (EC No. 440/2008). The flash point was determined to be 82.07°C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 82 °C
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
