Key result
Remarks on result:
no flash point - measurement carried out until boiling temperature

No flash point was observed up to 122°C and 121°C, in test 1 and 2 respectively. Both tests were terminated (at a temperature of 122°C and 121°C, respectively) because the test substance boiled out of the test cup. After the test, the test substance appeared to be a light brown liquid.

Conclusions:
No flash point was observed up to 122°C and 121°C, in test 1 and 2 respectively. Both tests were terminated (at a temperature of 122°C and 121°C, respectively) because the test substance boiled out of the test cup. After the test, the test substance appeared to be a light brown liquid.
In conclusion, no flash-point of (S)-1,3,4-trihydroxybutan-2-one could be determined when using a Pensky-Martens closed cup flash-point apparatus.
Executive summary:

No flash point was observed up to 122°C and 121°C, in test 1 and 2 respectively. Both tests were terminated (at a temperature of 122°C and 121°C, respectively) because the test substance boiled out of the test cup. After the test, the test substance appeared to be a light brown liquid.


In conclusion, no flash-point of (S)-1,3,4-trihydroxybutan-2-one could be determined when using a Pensky-Martens closed cup flash-point apparatus.
