Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Version / remarks:
relating to ASTM D93 with regard to Pensky-Martens apparatus
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
no
Other quality assurance:
ISO/IEC 17025 (General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories)
Remarks:

Type of method:
non-equilibrium method closed cup
Flash point apparatus:
Pensky-Martens apparatus
Dynamic viscosity of test material:
0.13037 Pa*s
Specific details on test material used for the study:
Lot No.: 50000067900
Key result
Flash point:
210 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa

The results of duplicate determinations of the flash point for the test substance were 209°C and 211°C.

Averaging results in the final value for the flash point: 210°C (standard deviation 1.4°C; RSD 0.7%).

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
No classification for flammable liquids does apply, considering also UN-GHS criteria.
Conclusions:
Flash point (EU Method A.9/ASTM D93): 210 °C at 1013 hPa
Executive summary:

The flash point was determined according to EU Method A.9/ASTM D93 (Standard Test Methods for Flash Point by Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Tester): flash point 210°C at 1013 hPa. Two replicate measurements were performed, resulting in very similar values (209°C and 211°C). In conclusion, there are no classification requirements with regard to flammble liquids for the test item, considering also UN-GHS criteria.
