Description of key information
The flash point determination of test substance was done . The method is closed cup method using Abel's Flash Point Apparatus. The flashpoint of the test substance was found to be 32°C at 980.9 hPa
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 32 °C
Additional information
The flash point determination of test substance was done . The method is closed cup method using Abel's Flash Point Apparatus. The flashpoint of the test substance was found to be 32°C at 980.9 hPa
Also , Based on the available data from handbooks, authoritative databases, modelling databases and secondary source, the flash point of test chemical was determined to be 33°C.
Thus, on the basis of GHS classification criteria, the chemical has flash point ≥ 23°C to < 60°C hence the substance was considered to be flammable and considered to be classified as flammable liquid category 3.
