A flash point value of the test item was determined according to EU test method A.9 (Council Regulation (EC) No 440/2008, Official Journal L 142/1 2008) with the Abel method (closed cup).
Flash point: 42.5 °C (1013 hPa)
Description of key information
42.5°C at 1013 hPa (measured)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 42.5 °C
Additional information
A flash point value of 42.5°C (1013 hPa) was determined by Abel method (closed cup) according to EU Test Method A.9. In a supporting study a value of 32°C was determined according to an appropriate national standard method (DIN 51755). A value of 30°C was determined in another supporting study. The lower flash point values obtained for the supporting studies compared the key study could be due to the presence of residual solvent (substance purity not available). Flash point values between 37°C to 49°C (non-assigned, company data) were obtained from other secondary sources.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
