Key result
Flash point:
211 °C
Remarks on result:
other: the result was corrected for atmospheric pressure

RESULTS

- In the preliminary assessment, the test item became more mobile, ignited with an orange flame and produced grey/black fumes. Further heating gave granular, carbonised residue.

-Results of the main flash point determination are shown in Table 1 (below).
