Description of key information

The flash point determination of test substance was performed by closed cup method using Pensky Martin’s Flash Point Apparatus. The flash point of the test substance was found to be 81.6 °C at 976.9 hPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
81.6 °C

Additional information

The flash point determination of test substance was performed by closed cup method using Pensky Martin’s Flash Point Apparatus. The flash point of the test substance was found to be 81.6 °C at 976.9 hPa.

Also data from other reliable sources is reported to be in the range of 83 -85 degree celcious and the selected key value is near the range of flash point. This values confirms that the substance is not flammable in nature.
