Referenceopen allclose all
Pressure was not reported. Data is estimated, because the test was conducted under ambient condition using an open cup system.
The pressure 1013 hPa was assumed since the pressure should be corrected to 1013 hPa by the system.
Description of key information
185 °C at ca. 1013 hPa
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The flash point for the substance decanoic acid, mixed diesters with octanoic acid and proylene glycol (CAS 68583-51-7) was determined according to AOCS Tn 1a-64 in a Cleveland open cup. Another determination (182 °C) according to ASTM D93 in a Pensky-Martens apparatus is supporting.
