The atmospheric pressure on the day of the test, was 101.76 kPa.

 

For safety reasons, the lowest temperature at which the test substance vapour / air mixture could be ignited (determined during the preliminary test) will be taken as the flash-point of Hatcol 3344.

 

The lowest flash-point was corrected for the atmospheric pressure.

Corrected flash-point = 129 + 0.25 (101.3 – 101.76)°C

                                 = 128.89°C

Conclusions:
In conclusion, the flash-point of Hatcol 3344 is 129°C under the conditions of the test.
Executive summary:

The determination of the flash-point of Hatcol 3344 was performed using a Pensky-Martens closed cup flash-point apparatus, in accordance with EEC-Directive 92/69 EEC, A.9 "Flashpoint" (1992) and DIN EN 22719: "Bestimmung des Flammpunktes Verfahren nach Pensky- Martens im geschlossenen Tiegel"; December 1993.

The flash-point of Hatcol 3344, determined during the preliminary test is 129°C.

During the main study, the flash-point of Hatcol 3344 is determined to be 198°C and 195°C in test 1 and 2, respectively.

For safety reasons, the lowest temperature at which the test substance vapour / air mixture could be ignited (determined during the preliminary test) will be taken as the flash-point of Hatcol 3344.

In conclusion, the flash-point of Hatcol 3344 is 129°C under the conditions of the test.
