Flash point:
-20 °C
Remarks on result:
other: no other details available
Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (highly flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Based on available data from material safety data sheet,the flash point point of chemical Methyl trifluroacetate was determined to be -18 degree C by using closed cup menthod
Executive summary:

Based on available data from material safety data sheet,the flash point point of chemical Methyl trifluroacetate was determined to be -18 degree C by using closed cup menthod

As the experimental boiling point value of chemial Methyl trifluroacetate was 43.25 degree C from various reliable sources which is >35 degree C.Hence,on the basis of above flash point and initial boiling point value,the chemical Methyl trifluroacetate was considered to be classified as flammable liquid category 2 in accordance with CLP regulation
