Atmospheric pressure: 100.77 kPa

Corrected flash point: 153.128°C

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
A flash point value of 153±2°C at 1013 hPa was determined for the substance in accordance with ISO 3679:1998 and in compliance with GLP. The result is considered to be reliable.

Description of key information

Flash point: 153±2°C at 1013 hPa (ISO 3679:1998)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
153 °C

Additional information

A flash point value of 153±2°C at 1013 hPa was determined for the submission substance using a rapid equilibrium closed-cup method in accordance with ISO 3679:1998 and in compliance with GLP. The result is considered to be reliable.

A flash point value of 153±2°C at 1013 hPa indicates that the substance should not be classified for flammability in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
