Key result

Flash point:

223 °C

Atm. press.:

1 013 hPa

A test, carried out with the Rapid tester (Seta Flash Serie 8) according to DIN EN ISO 3679 showed a flash point of 223.0 °C.

Measuring date: 2017-06-07/08/09

Actual air pressure: 1004 / 1010 / 1005 hPa (corrected: 1013 hPa)

 

By the further flash point determination with the Pensky-Martens apparatus (PMA) the test item showed a flash point of >243 °C. Up to 243 °C no flash point was detected.

 

Final results

The test item shows a flash point at a temperature of 223.0 °C according to EU method A.9. (by means of rapid tester - closed cup system, according to DIN EN ISO 3679).

Description of key information

Flash point = 223 °C at 1013 hPa (EU Method A.9, Closed Cup - Setaflash apparatus)
