- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- ISO 2719 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method)
- Version / remarks:
- 2002. Remark: DIN EN ISO 2719
- Type of method:
- non-equilibrium method closed cup
- Flash point:
- 162 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 101.3 kPa
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The flash point of the test item is 162 ± 2 °C at 101.3 kPa.
- Executive summary:
The flash point of the test substance was determined according to EU method A.9 and DIN EN ISO 2719 using a Pensky-Martens apparatus. At 101.3 kPa, the flash point is 162 +/- 2 °C.
Reference
The measurement gave the following results:

Norm conformity |
Status |
| #1 Sel | 160.3 | No | Prelim |
| #2 Enl | 168.1 | Yes | Rejected |
| #3 Enl | 162.1 | Yes | OK |
| #4 Enl | 161.9 | Yes | OK |
Measurement #4 was performed because of the discrepancy between measurements #2 and #3. In view of the result, measurement #2 was rejected as too high. The flash point is taken as the rounded mean value of the two measurements that are in satisfactory agreement (#3 and #4), giving a value of 162 °C. The mean atmospheric pressure was 101.1 kPa for the two selected values; the results quoted are corrected to standard atmospheric pressure, 101.3 kPa. Based on the general experience with the method, the error is quoted as ± 2°C.
Description of key information
The flash point of the test item is 162 ± 2 °C at 101.3 kPa.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 162 °C
Additional information
The flash point of the test substance was determined according to EU method A.9 and DIN EN ISO 2719 using a Pensky-Martens apparatus. At 101.3 kPa, the flash point is 162 +/- 2 °C.
