- Flash point:
- 185 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 1 008 hPa
- Remarks on result:
- other: preliminary test
- Key result
- Flash point:
- 182 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 1 009.4 hPa
- Interpretation of results:
- other: non-flammable
- Conclusions:
- The test item has a flash point of 182.0 °C (corrected and rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C) according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. Flash Point and DIN EN ISO 3679 (2015). Based on the results the test item is classified as a non-flammable liquid.
- Executive summary:
The test item has a flash point of 182.0 °C (corrected and rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C).
Based on the results the test item is classified as follows:
UN Transport Regulation:
As the test item has a measured flash point of > 60 °C, it has not to be classified in class 3 as flammable liquid.
GHS (CLP Regulation EC 1272/2008 Annex 1: 2.6):
As the test item has a measured flash point of > 60 °C, it has not to be classified as flammable liquid.
This study was GLP compliant and followed Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. and DIN EN ISO 3679 (2015).
The study was given a reliability rating of 1 (reliable without restrictions).

In the main test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 182.0 °C.
The measured flash point is corrected to the ambient pressure to be 182.09 °C.
The resulting corrected flash point rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C is 182.0 °C.
Description of key information

Additional information
This study was GLP compliant and followed Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. and DIN EN ISO 3679 (2015).
The study was given a reliability rating of 1 (reliable without restrictions).Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
