(several materials were tested according to ISO 2719, Pensky-Martens closed cup or ISO 13736, Abel closed cup)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The reported values for the flash point for Tar acids, xylenol fraction range from 94 -104 °C. The flash point of the substance will vary depending on the ratio of the constituents of the substance.
