Type of method:
closed cup
Flash point apparatus:
Pensky-Martens apparatus
Remarks:
Instrument: Pensky Martens apparatus DIN EN ISO 2719, with a flame as ignition source. Testvessel material: stainless steel.
Key result
Flash point:
85.8 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa

The mean flash point corrected to 1013 hPa is 85.55 °C.The final flash point rounded down to 0.5 °C is 85.5 °C.


 


Validity criteria for the measurement of the flash point:




















Target condition according to guideline:Actual condition according to the study:Validity criteria met:
When the flash point, determined by a non-equilibrium method is found to be 0 ± 2 ° C, 21 ± 2 °C or 55 ± 2 °C, it should be confirmed by an equilibrium method using the same apparatus.The flash point was determined to be 85.8 °C.Not applicable.
Only the methods which can give the temperature of the flash point may be used for a notification.Temperature is stated.Yes

 

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
