- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EPA OPPTS 830.6315 (Flammability)
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: UN Handbook “Manual of Tests and Criteria” Rev. 7, 2019, Method 32.4 “Test methods used for determining flash point and viscosity”
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
- Type of method:
- non-equilibrium method closed cup
- Flash point apparatus:
- Pensky-Martens apparatus
- Key result
- Remarks on result:
- no flash point - measurement carried out until boiling temperature
- Remarks:
- No flash point was detected up to boiling stage of 96.9 °C, the flash-point tester was stopped as no temperature increased was observed.
- Conclusions:
- A pre-test was performed using a flashpoint tester. In the pre-test, no flash point was detected. Heating was performed up to 96.9 °C. At this temperature, boiling was observed and the flashpoint tester was stopped as the temperature increased no more.
Therefore, no flash point can be stated for the test item Kombucha. The determination was considered valid.

Description of key information
No flash point was detected up to the boiling stage of 96.9 °C. Therefore, no flash point can be stated for the test item.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
