The lowest temperature at which ignition was observed was 107.0°C, and the mean measured flash point is 108 °C after correction to ambient pressure.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash point was determined to be 108 °C at 1013 hPa by the Pensky Martens method.
Executive summary:

In the current study the flash point of the test item was determined according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. Flash Point and DIN EN ISO 2719 (2003).

The flash point was determined to be 108 °C (average corrected and rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C).

Description of key information

The flash point was determined according to EC method A.9, in closed cup using a Pensky-Martens apparatus. The flash point was found to be 108 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
108 °C

Additional information

The flash point was determined according to EC method A.9, in closed cup using a Pensky-Martens apparatus. The flash point was found to be 108 °C.
