The lowest flash point corrected to 1013 hPa is rounded down with an accurancy of 0.5°C: 136.0 °C.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash of the test item was 136.0 °C under atmospheric conditions (1013 hPa).
Executive summary:

A study was conducted in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.9 to determine the flash point of the test substance by using the rapid equilibrium closed cup method. The flash point of the test item was 136.0 °C under atmospheric conditions (1013 hPa).

Description of key information

The flash of the test item was 136.0 °C under atmospheric conditions (1013 hPa).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
136 °C

Additional information
