Due to the sample boiling higher test temperatures could not be attained and therefore testing was terminated.

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified based on EU CLP criteria
Conclusions:
Under the study conditions, no flash was observed until boiling temperature (i.e., until 102°C)


Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the flash point of the test substance, using the Pensky-Martens closed cup apparatus according to EU Method A.9, in compliance with GLP. During the study, due to the sample boiling, higher test temperatures could not be attained and therefore testing was terminated. Under the study conditions, no flash was observed until boiling temperature (Chilworth, 2017).

Description of key information

Flash point of the test substance was determined using the Pensky-Martens closed cup apparatus, according to EU Method A.9 (Chilworth, 2017).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Value used for CSA: No flash was observed until boiling temperature (i.e., until 102°C).
