- Conclusions:
- Flash point of the test item was determined to be 71 °C at 1013.25 hPa.
- Executive summary:
The purpose of the study was to determine the flash point of test item using Pensky-Martens Closed Cup method. The flash point of the test item was determined to be 71 °C at 1013.25 hPa.
Reference
For the determination of the initial temperature of flash point measurement a screen test was performed with the test item. The sample was heated from 30 °C to 200 °C using 5.5 °C/min heating rate. Based on this preliminary test the flash point of test item was determined to be: 70.4 °C.
In the course of the study three subsequent tests with the test item were carried out. The measured flash points of test item were:
70.4°C, 70.4 °C and 71.4 °C resulting a mean value: 71 °C at 1013.25 hPa.
The repeatability criterion was met because the maximum difference between replicate determinations was not more than 2°C.
Description of key information
Flash point of the test item was determined to be 71 °C at 1013.25 °C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 71 °C
Additional information
The purpose of the study was to determine the flash point of test item using Pensky-Martens Closed Cup method. The flash point of the test item was determined to be 71 °C at 1013.25 hPa.
