- Flash point:
- 50 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 101.3 kPa
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 3 (flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- According to the various pre-tests that were performed, the lowest flash was observed at 50°C.
- Executive summary:
The study was performed in order to determine the flash point of test item according to EU A.9 guideline, using an equilibrium method with closed cup.
The test item is classified as flammable liquid category 3 according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP regulation) and UN Globally Harmonised System (GHS).

Results
Pre-tests
Several pre-tests were performed to estimate the flash point value. During the first pre-test (from 25°C to 55°C), no flash was detected by the apparatus. During the second pre-test (from 55°C to 85°C), flash was detected by the apparatus during the first dipping of the ignitor into the test cup (55°C). During the third pre-test (from 45°C to 75°C), flash was detected by the apparatus at 75°C. During the fourth pre-test (from 50°C to 80°C), flash was detected by the apparatus during the first dipping of the ignitor into the test cup (50°C). During the fifth pre-test (from 45°C to 75°C), flash was detected by the apparatus at 75°C. During the sixth pre-test (from 50°C to 80°C), flash was detected by the apparatus during the first dipping of the ignitor into the test cup (50°C).
Discussion and Validation of the results
The measured flash point value for the reference substance butanol, 38.0°C is within the control cards limits and complies with the validation criteria of 38.0+/-1.0°C.
The flash point of the reference substance CRM, 75.0 °C respects also the checking cards limits and complies with the validation criteria of 75.5 +/- 2 °C
Therefore, the results are considered as valid.
Control of the performance of the method:
- A flash point of 38°C was registered for the reference substance butanol (Batch N° JA052488)
- A flash point of 75.0°C was registered for the Certified Reference Material (Batch N° 1162111a)
Description of key information
The flash point of test item was determined to be 50°C at 101.3 kPa.
Test item is classified as flammable liquid category 3 according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP regulation) and UN Globally Harmonised System (GHS).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 50 °C
Additional information
A fully reliable experimental study, conducted according to EU A9 guideline is available.
It is considered as a key study, and the result is retained as key data.
