In the main test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 136.0 °C.

The measured flash points are corrected to the ambient pressure and averaged to be 136.7 °C.

The resulting average corrected flash point rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C is 136.5 °C.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item has a flash point of 136.5 °C.
Executive summary:

The test item has a flash point of 136.5 °C (average 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 2719 (2003).

According to the results of the test on the flash point, the test item is not classified.

Description of key information

Additional information

A study was performed in order to determine the flash point of the test substance. The test item has a flash point of 136.5 °C (average 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 2719 (2003). According to the results of the test on the flash point, the test item is not classified.

- UN Transport Regulation: As the test item has a measured flash point of 136.5 °C, it is not classified in class 3 as flammable liquid.

- CLP Regulation EC 1272/2008: As the test item has a measured flash point of 136.5 °C, it is not classified as flammable liquid.
