Link to relevant study record(s)

Reference

Endpoint:

flash point of flammable liquids

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

14 Jul 2015

Reliability:

2 (reliable with restrictions)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

guideline study with acceptable restrictions

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point)

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

ISO 3679 (Determination of flash point - Rapid equilibrium closed cup method)

Results

Test	Test series 1 temperature [°C]	Result yes (+) / no (-)	Test series 2 temperature [°C]	Result yes (+) / no (-)
1	55	-	55	-
2	56	-	56	-
3	57	-	57	-
4	58	-	58	-
5	59	+	59	+
6	59	+	59	+

 

Test series	Measured value [°C]	Corrected value [°C]
1	59	60.2
2	59	60.2

 

Mean value* = 60.0 °C

* The mean value is calculated from test 1 and 2 and rounded to ± 0.5 °C 

Determination of the corrected flash-point:

 

T_C = T₀+ 0.25 x (101.3 – p)

T_C = corrected flash point to the standard atmospheric pressure (101.3 kPa)

T₀= measured flash point at actual atmospheric pressure

p = actual atmospheric pressure [kPa]

Conclusions:

A flash point value of 60.0 °C at 967 hPa was determined in a reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol. It was not compliant with GLP.
