other: Normalab NPV 310. This apparatus is in compliance with following standard : ISO Standard 3679 (March 2015)
Key result
Flash point:
ca. 65 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 1 atm
Interpretation of results:
Category 4 (combustible liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The flash point of the test item was 65.0 °C ± 0.5 °C (corrected value). Hence, the substance is not classified as a flammable liquid according to CLP criteria of Regulation (EC) N°1272/2008.
The substance is classified as Flammable Liquid Category 4 according to GHS criteria of UN Globally Harmonized System.

Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
61.6 °C

Additional information

Mean flashpoint is 61.6 °

Due to the degree of uncertainty which is around 2°, the susbtance is classified flammable.
