The value of flash point was corrected due to the deviation of the thermometer and atmospheric pressure.

C – determined flash point after including a thermometer deviation = 80.8 °C;

p – ambient barometric pressure = 100.6 kPa.

T = C + 0.25 (101.3 – p) = 80.8 °C + 0.25(101.3 kPa – 100.6 kPa) ≈ 81.0 °C

measurement uncertainty: 1.2 °C

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash point was determined to be 81 ºC.
Executive summary:

The determination of the flash point was performed according to EU Method A.9 using Pensky-Martens closed cup method (ISO 2716). The flash point was determined to be 81 ºC.

Description of key information

Key study: EU Method A.9 and ISO 2716 (Pensky-Martens closed cup method). The flash point was determined to be 81 ºC.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
81 °C
