Introduction Flash point value is able to be used in aspects such as transportation, storage, operation, safety management and may be regarded as the classification parameter to define "inflammable substance" and "combustible substance". Their accurate definitions are detailed in their own special laws and regulations and relevant standards. Flash point value may be used to indicate where high volatile or combustible substance is present in relatively non-volatile or combustible substance. Flash point test is the first step for other research for unknown materials. Flash point test is not able to be used for potentially instable, labile or explosive samples, unless otherwise confirmed within the temperature range specified in this standard. Specified amount of such samples contacted between metal components of heating and flash point testers won't produce decomposition, explosion or other adverse effects. Flash point test results obtained on halohydrocarbon-containing samples shall be analyzed carefully as such samples possibly will produce abnormal results.Contents 1 Scope 1 2 Normative References 1 3 Terms and Definitions 2 4 Summary of Method 3 5 Reagents and Materials 3 6 Apparatus 3 7 Apparatus Preparation 4 8 Sampling 4 9 Sample Handling 4 10 Test Procedure 5 11 Calculation 6 12 Expression of Results 7 13 Precision 7 14 Test Report 8 Appendix A (Informative) Apparatus Verification 9 Appendix B (Normative) Pensky-Martens Closed Flash Point Tester 12 Appendix C (Normative) Thermometer Specification 17 Appendix D (Informative) Thermometer Adaptor 18 Determination of Flash Point - Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Method 闪点的测定 宾斯基-马丁闭口杯法 Warning: the use of this standard may involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment.
