Description of key information
The flash point determination of test substance was done as per the test guideline OECD 103. On basis of study report, the experimental flash point value of test substance was determined to be 87.6 °C at 978.4 hPa.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Flash point at 101 325 Pa:
- 87.6 °C
Additional information
The flash point determination of test substance was done as per the test guideline OECD 103. On basis of study report, the experimental flash point value of test substance was determined to be 87.6 °C at 978.4 hPa.
On the basis of data from handbook & authoritative database, flash point of the test chemical was determined to be 121.11°C by Cleveland open cup method.In a supporting study from authoritative database, flash point of the test chemical was determined to be > 120°C by Closed Cup method.
Thus, on the basis of criteria mentioned in CLP regulation, the chemical has flash point > 60°C hence the substance was considered to be not flammable.
