- 101.3 kPa
- Remarks on result:
- other: corrected to ambient temperature
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 2 (highly flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The test item had a flash point of 13.18 °C.
- Executive summary:
The test item has a flash point of 13.18°C as determined according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. Flash Point, closed cup, Abel apparatus. First a preliminary test was performed to have a proxy for the flash point. In the main test, two replicate measurements were performed. The test item was found to have a flash point of 13.18°C (corrected for atmospheric pressure).
Reference
In the preliminary test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 13.0 °C.
In the main test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 13.0 °C. The mean measured flash point is corrected to the ambient pressure to be 13.18 °C.
Description of key information
The test item has a flash point of 13.18 °C (average corrected) as measured according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 13.18 °C
Additional information
According to the EU Regulation No. 1272/2008 on the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) the substance is considered to be classified as category 2 flammable liquid because the flash point is < 23 °C and the boiling point is > 35 °C (Table 2.6.1).
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).
