Interpretation of results:
Category 3 (flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The flash point of the test item is therefore 25.5°C at 101.5KPa
Executive summary:

The flash point of the test substance was determined under GLP according to EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point), using a non equilibrium closed cup method (ISO13736 BS 2000 Part 170).

The flashpoint of the test item is stated as 25.5°C at 101.5 KPa.

Description of key information

The flash point of the test item is therefore 25.5°C at 101.5KPa

(A litterature data is available : flash point = 25°C).

The test item should be classified as flammable liquid category 3 according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP regulation) and UN Globally Harmonised System (GHS).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
25.5 °C

Additional information

The flash point of the test substance was determined under GLP according to EU Method A.9 (Flash-Point), using a non equilibrium closed cup method (ISO13736 BS 2000 Part 170).

It is considered as a key study. The result is retained as key data for purpose of CSA.
