Reference
Endpoint:
flash point of flammable liquids
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2005-08-30 - 2005-09-12 (experimental phase)
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 3679 (Determination of flash point - Rapid equilibrium closed cup method)
Version / remarks:
2004
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:
However the study was performed in a test facility, which has been certified to be in compliance with the principles of GLP.
Type of method:
closed cup
Flash point:
196 °C
Atm. press.:
101.9 kPa
Remarks on result:
other: flash point: 196±4 °C; at ambient pressure: 764 mm Hg (i.e. 1.0053 atm, 101.9 kPa).

Remark: This test is usually carried out at normal ambient pressure. The actual pressure is not given in the study report. However in the corresponding archived raw data the actual pressure was recorded as 764 mm Hg (i.e. 1.0053 atm, 101.9 kPa).

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The study is considered to be adequate and reliable.
Executive summary:

The flash point at 101.9 kPa was measured (close-cup equilibrium method) as 196 °C.

Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
196 °C

Additional information

The substance is a solid with a melting range 61.4 - 69 °C. Only one study is available which measures the flash point of the substance. This study is considered to be reliable and adequate, and is carried forward for use in risk assessment, classification and labelling.
