Key result
Flash point:
246 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa

Preliminary Test

- In the preliminary test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 252.0 °C at 998.9 hPa.

 

Main Test

- In the main test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 246.0 °C.

- The measured flash points are corrected to the ambient pressure and averaged to be 246.3 °C.

- The resulting average corrected flash point rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C is 246 °C.

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified in accordance with EU Criteria.
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study, the average corrected flash point rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C is 246 °C. The test material does not require classification.
Executive summary:

The flash point of the test material was investigated in accordance with the standardised guidelines EU Method A.9, DIN EN ISO 2719 and EPA OCSPP OPPTS 830.6315, under GLP conditions.

The flash point of the test item was investigated with the Flash Point Tester NPM 450 (Pensky Martens) using a closed cup method.

In the preliminary test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 252.0 °C at 998.9 hPa.

In the main test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 246.0 °C. The measured flash points were corrected to the ambient pressure and averaged to be 246.3 °C.

Under the conditions of this study, the average corrected flash point rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C is 246 °C. The test material does not require classification.

Description of key information
