Key result
Flash point:
24 °C
Atm. press.:
1 012 hPa

A gas flame was used as the ignition source. Ignitions were visually determined by the tester. In the first, second and third main tests, ignitions were determined at 24.0 °C. The barometric pressure was 1012 hPa at the time of the test runs.

Interpretation of results:
Category 3 (flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The flash point was determined to be 24 °C at 1012 hPa.
Executive summary:

The flash point of the test item was determined in an experimental study according to EC-Guideline 92/69/EWG A.9 and DIN EN ISO 13736 using the closed cup method with an Abel apparatus. The flash point was determined to be 24 °C at 1012 hPa. Therefore, the test item has to be classified as flammable liquid Category 3, H226: Flammable liquid and vapour.

Description of key information

The flash point was determined to be 24 °C at 1012 hPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
24 °C
