- Flash point apparatus:
- Pensky-Martens apparatus
- Key result
- Flash point:
- 70.5 °C
- Atm. press.:
- 1 013 hPa
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The flash point was determined to be 70.73 °C hPa by the Pensky Martens method.
Corrected to standard atmospheric pressure, this corresponds to 70.5°C at 1013 hPa. - Executive summary:
The flash point of the test item was measured using the Pensky Martens method, according Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. Flash Point, DIN EN ISO 2719 (2003). The flash point of the test substance is 70.5 °C, average and corrected to standard atmospheric pressure.
Reference
In the preliminary test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 71.0 °C.
In the main test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 70.0 °C. The mean measured flash point corrected to standard atmospheric pressure of 1013 hPa is 70.73 °C, which - when rounded to the nearest 0.5°C - provides a final value of 70.5°C.
| Replicate | amount of test item (g) | temperature (°C) | Ignition | air pressure (hPa) | corrected flash point (°C) |
| 1 | 60.00 | 70 | + | 1003.8 | 70.23 |
| 2 | 57.88 | 71 | + | 1003.8 | 71.23 |
Description of key information
The flash point was determined to be 70.5 °C at standard atmospheric pressure.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 70.5 °C
Additional information
For this endpoint, one experimental study is availble. The flash point of the test item was measured using the Pensky Martens method, according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. Flash Point, DIN EN ISO 2719 (2003). The flash point of the test substance is 70.5 °C on average, corrected to atmospheric pressure (1013 hPa).
According to the CLP Regulation EC 1272/2008 (Annex I: 2.6) the substance does not have to be classified as flammable liquid because the measured flash point is above 60 °C.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
