Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 236 ± 2°C.
Executive summary:

The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 236 ± 2°C, using a closed cup equilibrium method designed to be compatible with Method A.9 Flash Point of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.

Description of key information

236 ± 2°C, EU A.9, Tremain S.P. (2019)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
236.1 °C

Additional information

The flash point of the test item is determined to be 236 ± 2°C. As this is > 60°C, the substance did not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 on the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixture.
