Flash point:
213 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa

Measurement of Flash Point temperature was determined using an instrument/procedure which operates at ambient atmospheric pressure. The ambient barometric pressure associated with this measurement was not reported, but is assumed to be at/near the standard pressure of 1013 hPa.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Executive summary:

The flash point of Bisphenol A is 213 °C at 1013 hPa.

Conclusions:
The flashpoint of phenol is 81 °C.
Executive summary:

In the peer-reviewed handbook the flashpoint of phenol is reported to be 81 °C.

Description of key information

The overall flash point of this substance is determined by its phenol content and can thus be estimated to be 81°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
81 °C

Additional information

The flash point of phenol is reported to be 81 °C.

The flash point of Bisphenol A is 213 °C at 1013 hPa.
