Key result

Flash point:

251.5 °C

Atm. press.:

102.9 kPa

Preliminary test

Estimated flash-point for Hatcol 5127

Test substance	Estimated flash-point [°C]
Hatcol 5127	252

 

Main Study

Flash-point for Hatcol 5127

Test	Flash-point [°C]	Lowest flash-point [°C]
1 2	252 256	252

 

The lowest flash-point was corrected for the atmospheric pressure (i.e. 102.9 kPa).

Corrected flash-point = 252 + 0.25 (101.3-102.9) °C

                                   = 251.60 °C

Rounded off to 0.5 °C gives a flash-point for Hatcol 5127: 251.5 °C

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The flash-point determined for Hatcol 5127, using a Pensky-Martens closed cup:
Hatcol 5127: 251.5 °C

Executive summary:

The determination of the flash-point was performed in accordance with EEC-Directive 92/69 EEC, A.9 "Flash-point" (1992) and DIN EN 22719: "Bestimmung des Flammpunktes Verfahren nach Pensky-Martens im geschlossenen Tiegel"; December 1993.
