Description of key information

- 132 °C
Additional information
A study was performed to investigate the flash point of the test material in accordance with the standardised guideline ISO 2719 under GLP conditions. The method employed was equivalent to that in the standardised guideline EU Method A.9. The study has been assigned a reliability score of 1 in line with the principles for assessing data quality as defined by Klimisch et al. (1997).
The test covers the determination of the closed cup flash point temperature of a liquid chemical, in air, at atmospheric pressure. The sample was heated at a rate of 5 to 6 °C per minute with continual stirring at 90 to 120 rpm in a closed cup (volume ca. 100 cm³). A small flame with a diameter of 3.2 to 4.8 mm was directed into the cup containing the sample, at regular intervals, with simultaneous interruption of stirring. The flash point is the lowest temperature at which the application of a flame results in an ignition of the vapour, above the sample.
Under the conditions of the study, the closed-cup flash point temperature of the test material has been determined to be 132 °C (no correction required for barometric pressure).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
