Description of key information

Flash point: 183.5 °C (Method EC A.9; equilibrium method closed cup)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
183.5 °C

Additional information

The flash point was performed in accordance with the test method A.9. "Flash point" as described in the Official Journal of the European Communities L 383A. Due to the very high viscosity of the test substance the Pensky - Martens apparatus could not be used. Therefore, the test procedure VTA(S) 21N04005.001 (see table I, p.6 final report) was used.
