- 2008
- Deviations:
- no
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- ISO 3679 (Determination of flash point - Rapid equilibrium closed cup method)
- Version / remarks:
- 2015

- Type of method:
- equilibrium method closed cup
- Flash point apparatus:
- other: Normalab NPV310
- Key result
- Flash point:
- 229.5 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 1 013 hPa
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The flash point of the test item is therefore 229.5 °C at 1013 hPa
- Executive summary:
The flash point of the test substance was determined under GLP according to EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point), using a Rapid equilibrium closed cup method (ISO3679, 2015).
The test item swelled during heating up. Therefore the main test was performed with 1 g of the test item. The flashpoint of the test item is stated as 229.5 °C (502.65 K) at 1013 hPa.

The test item swelled during heating up. At a temperature of 200.0 °C the tests with 2 g and 4 g were stopped due to high filling levels in the apparatus. To ensure a sufficient gas space inside the apparatus which is needed to form a flammable vapour/air mixture the test was continued with 1 g of the test item.

Barometric pressure = 1017.5 hPa
The lowest flash point corrected to 1013 hPa is rounded down with an accuracy of 0.5 °C: 229.5 °C.
Description of key information
The substance is NOT classified as a Flammable Liquid according to Regulation (EC) N°1272/2008 (CLP criteria)
and UN Globally Harmonized System (GHS criteria).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 229.5 °C
Additional information
The flash point of the test substance was determined under GLP according to EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point), using a Rapid-equilibrium closed cup method (ISO3679). It is considered as a key study. The result is retained as key data for purpose of CSA.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
