- other: EU-GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- - flash point of the test material: 239 °C (product grade 1), 261 °C (product grade 2).
- key result: > 239°C (closed cup) - Executive summary:
The flash point was determined using a Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Tester (according ASTM D93).
The flash point of the substance 'Paraffin waxes (Fischer-Tropsch), isomerization' has been determined to be >239°C [based on the results of two product grades: 239°C (product grade 1), 261°C (product grade 2)].
