1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: The study was conducted according to standard guidelines in compliance with GLP.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO 2719 (Determination of flash point - Pensky-Martens closed cup method)
Version / remarks:
2002
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
closed cup
Key result
Atm. press.:
1 014.7 hPa
Remarks on result:
other: No flash point was obtained below the temperature where decomposition/reaction of the test substance was visually observed (i.e. approximately 165°C).

The temperature of the test substance at the start of the test was 21.0°C. Starting at 22°C, an attempt was made to ignite the vapour of the test substance every 2 °C.

The atmospheric pressure was 1014.7 hPa.

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the study, no flash point was obtained below the temperature where decomposition/reaction of the test substance was visually observed (i.e. approximately 165°C).
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the flash point of the test substance according to EU method A.9. and ISO guideline 2719, using a Pensky Martens closed cup method.

Under the conditions of the study, no flash point was obtained below the temperature where decomposition/reaction of the test substance was visually observed (i.e. approximately 165°C).

Description of key information

No flash point was obtained below the temperature where decomposition/reaction of the test substance was visually observed (i.e. approximately 165°C).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
165 °C
