Observed flash point: 89.0 °C

Corrected flash point: 89.1 °C

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 (combustible liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 89 ± 2 °C using a closed cup equilibrium method.

Description of key information

The flash point of the substance was determined in a GLP study according to test method EC A.9 (K1, Envigo, 2018). The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 89.1 ± 2 °C using a closed cup equilibrium method.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
89.1 °C
