Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
ISO No., other: ASTM D6450-99
Deviations:
no
Principles of method if other than guideline:
ASTM D6450-99 is a Standard Test Method for Flash Point by Continuously Closed Cup (CCCFP) Tester from the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). It is a dynamic method that uses a closed but unsealed cup with air injected into the test chamber. The method is suitable for testing samples with a flash point from 10 to 250 °C.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
non-equilibrium method closed cup

ca. 1 atm

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The flash point is over 200 °C at atmospheric pressure ( 101.3 kPa).
Executive summary:

The test material sample supplied was tested for its Flash Point. The initial temperature was set at 45 °C and the final temperature was set at 200°C. At atmospheric pressure, the test material sample did not show flash point below 200 °C.
