Preliminary Test

- The estimated flash-point of the test material was 193 °C.

 

Main Study

- The difference between the results obtained with the Test 3 and Test 4 was ≤ 6 °C. From this, it was concluded that the flash-point of the test material is the lowest flash-point obtained.

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified in accordance with EU Criteria
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study, the flash point of the test material was 182 °C.
Executive summary:

The flash point of the test material was investigated in accordance with the standardised guideline ISO 2719, under GLP conditions.

The flash-point of the test material is the lowest temperature at which the test material evolves vapours in such amount that a flammable vapour/air mixture is produced in the test vessel.

The difference between the results obtained with the Test 3 and Test 4 was ≤ 6 °C. From this, it was concluded that the flash-point of the test material is the lowest flash-point obtained.

Under the conditions of this study, the flash point of the test material was 182 °C.

Description of key information

Under the conditions of the study, the flash point of the test material was 182 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
182 °C

Additional information

The flash point of the test material was investigated in accordance with the standardised guideline ISO 2719, under GLP conditions. The study was awarded a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).

The flash-point of the test material is the lowest temperature at which the test material evolves vapours in such amount that a flammable vapour/air mixture is produced in the test vessel.

The difference between the results obtained with the Test 3 and Test 4 was ≤ 6 °C. From this, it was concluded that the flash-point of the test material is the lowest flash-point obtained.

Under the conditions of the study, the flash point of the test material was 182 °C.
