Results and discussion

Flash point
Key result
Flash point:
ca. 180 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa

Any other information on results incl. tables

Preliminary test        

The estimated flash-point of the test item was 175°C.

Main study

The results of the main study on the determination of the flash-point of the test item are given inTable 6.

The difference between the results obtained with the Test 1 and Test 2 was≤2°C. From this, it was concluded that the flash-point of the test item is the lowest flash-point obtained.
