Specific details on test material used for the study:

SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source and lot/batch number of test material: PFW100207
- Purity: contains 0.03% water
- Physical state: Liquid

STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: in cool, well-ventilated area

Key result

Flash point:

132 °C

Atm. press.:

102 kPa

Remarks on result:

other: No correction for barometric pressure required.

Available MSDS data stated a flash point of 141°C. Therefore testing was initiated at 118°C (23°C below expected flashpoint, in accordance with test standard).

On runs 2 and 4 no flash point was observed and the test flame began to extinguish when directed into the cup. However in the other 3 runs a flash was observed at 132, 134 and 134 °C.

On completion of testing, the sample had turned dark orange.

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The flash-point of the substance was determined to be 132°C at 102.0 kPa.

Description of key information

The flash-point of the test substance was determined in a GLP-compliant study according to test method EC A.9 to be 132 °C at 102.0 kPa, following the closed cup method of Pensky-Martens (Younis S, 2012).

Key value for chemical safety assessment
