101 °C

Additional information

The flash point of the test material was investigated in a study which was performed in accordance with the standardised guideline EU Method A.9 under GLP conditions using the Pensky-Martens closed cup apparatus. The study was assigned a reliability score of 1 in accordance with the criteria for assessing data quality set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).

The sample was heated at a rate of 5 to 6 °C per minute with continual stirring at 90 to 120 rpm in a closed cup (volume ca. 100 cm³). A small flame with a diameter of 3.2 to 4.8 mm was directed into the cup containing the sample, at regular intervals, with simultaneous interruption of stirring. The flash point was determined as the lowest temperature at which the application of a flame resulted in an ignition of the vapour, above the sample.

Under the conditions of this study, the flash point for the test material was determined to be 101 °C (corrected due to barometric pressure).
