Materials and methods

Test guideline

Qualifier:

equivalent or similar to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)

Principles of method if other than guideline:

The applied method following Pensky-Martens is normally used for flash points above 40°C only. But with external cooling of the test item in the test vessel to 5°C, the instrument was able to measure down to 5°C. Temperatures below 5°C could not be tested because of the properties of the test item: The high viscosity prevented the stirrer from diving into the test item and the measurement could not be started. The method following Abel-Pensky was not applicable as stirring was not possible due to the high viscosity of the test item.

Results and discussion

Flash point

Flash point:

> 5.5 °C

Atm. press.:

101.3 kPa

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

The flash point is below 5.5°C which is below 21°C. Thus, this liquid substance is "highly flammable" (R11) according 67/548/EEC (self classification) and "flam. liquid cat. 1 (extremely flammable liquid) " OR 2 according GHS.

Executive summary:

Due to the properties of the test item and the specification of the method, no exact flash point could be determined. The flash point could be specified being below 5.5°C.
