Any other information on results incl. tables

None of the measurements showed an ignition of the test substance. The investigated temperature range 5 - 85 °C corresponds to a vapour pressure of the test substance from 8 hPa (5 °C) to 412 hPa (85 °C).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash point of MV5CN was determined to be > 85 °C (EU Method A.9).
Executive summary:

The flash point of MV5CN was measured using three separate test methods. The Setaflash, Pensky-Martens and Abel-Pensky methods determined no ignition of the test substance between temperature range of 5 - 85 °C. This study was conducted in accordance with EU Method A.9 and is compliant with GLP standards. Therefore, this study is classified as reliable without restrictions.
