Referenceopen allclose all
Measurement of Flash Point temperature was determined using an instrument/procedure which operates at ambient atmospheric pressure. The ambient barometric pressure associated with this measurement was not reported, but is assumed to be at/near the standard pressure of 1013 hPa.
Description of key information
The overall flash point of this substance is determined by its phenol content and can thus be estimated to be 81°C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 81 °C
Additional information
The flash point of phenol is reported to be 81 °C.
The flash point of Bisphenol A is 213 °C at 1013 hPa.
