Flash point
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- flash point of flammable liquids
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 22 June 2015
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- ISO 13736 (Petroleum products and other liquids - Determination of flash point - Abel closed cup method)
- Version / remarks:
- Abel closed cup method (ISO 13736:2013)
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- closed cup
- Flash point apparatus:
- Abel apparatus
- Key result
- Flash point:
- -11 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 101.325 kPa
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 2 (highly flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The flash point of Thermal cracking oil from blends of rubber, fuel oils and paraffin waxes, steam distillation condensate was determined to be -11 °C resulting in a classification as a Category 2 flammable liquid.
- Executive summary:
In order to determine the flash point of Thermal cracking oil from blends of rubber, fuel oils and paraffin waxes, steam distillation condensate, testing was conducted according to ISO 13736:2013.
The Abel apparatus closed cup method was used.
The sample was placed in the apparatus and heated at a prescribed rate. A flame was directed into the vapour space above the sample at regular intervals.The flash point was taken as the lowest temperature at which the application of the test flame caused the vapour above the sample to ignite with a distinct flash inside the cup. This temperature was observed to be -11 °C.
In accordance with the CLP and GHS Criteria states a substance with a flash point of < 23 °C and an initial boiling point of > 35 °C will be classified as a Category 2 flammable liquid. Due to the -11 °C flash point and 68.5 -205 °C boiling point of the substance, it was classified as such.

Description of key information
In order to determine the flash point of Thermal cracking oil from blends of rubber, fuel oils and paraffin waxes, steam distillation condensate (now known as Thermal cracking oil from blends of rubber, fuel oils and paraffin waxes, steam distillation condensate), testing was conducted according to ISO 13736:2013.The Abel apparatus closed cup method was used and a flash point of -11°C was derived. In accordance with both the CLP and GHS Criteria a substance with a flash point of < 23 °C and an initial boiling point of > 35 °C will be classified as a Category 2 flammable liquid. Because of the -11 °C flash point and 68.5 -205 °C boiling point of the substance, it was classified as such.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- -11 °C
