Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Flash point
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flash point of flammable liquids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2016-12-21 – 2016-12-23
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- ISO 2719 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method)
- Version / remarks:
- 2002
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The flash point of a flammable liquid is the lowest temperature at which there will be enough flammable vapor to ignite when an ignition source is applied.
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- closed cup
- Flash point:
- 109.6 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 977.9 hPa
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Not classified
- Conclusions:
- The mean flash point of test chemical is 109.6°C at 977.9hPa.
- Executive summary:
The flash point determination of test chemical was done following closed cup method using Pensky-Martens flash point apparatus. The test was conducted in replicates and mean flash point was found to be 109.6°C at 977.9hPa.
Based on criteria mentioned in CLP regulation the chemical has flash point >than 60 degree C hence the test chemical was considered to be non-flammable.

Additional information
Flash Point:
From the various results, database were reviewed to summaries the following information:
The flash point determination of test chemical was done following closed cup method using Pensky-Martens flash point apparatus. The test was conducted in replicates and mean flash point was found to be 109.6°C at 977.9hPa.
In a similar study, The flash point for test chemical was determined to be >200 degree C and from another study, the flash point for test chemical was determined to be >100 degree C.
As per the available data for flash point from laboratory report, authoritative databases and handbook, the flash point value determined was in range from >100 degree C to >200 degree C. As the data from lab has K1 reliability and the test was performed using OECD guidelines which has the value of flash point as 109.6 °C at977.9 hPa within the range thus considered as key study for the chemical safety assessment. Also based on criteria mentioned in CLP regulation the chemical has flash point >than 60 degree C hence the test chemical was considered to be non-flammable.
