Standard Test Method for Finite Flash Point Determination of Liquid Wastes by Small-Scale Closed Cup Tester

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This procedure is intended to be used to evaluate the ignitability of liquid wastes.

5.2 Flash point measures the response of the subsample to heat and an ignition source under controlled laboratory conditions. It is only one of a number of properties that shall be considered in assessing the overall flammability hazard of a liquid waste material.

5.3 Flash point can indicate the possible presence of highly volatile and flammable materials in a relatively nonvolatile or nonflammable material.

5.4 This test method uses a small sample volume (2 mL) and short test time (1 min).
