We perform flash point by ASTM D93 to measure the lowest temperature at which a volatile material vaporizes and forms an ignitable mixture with the air. This test is useful for measuring the volatility and purity of a material. Flash Point by ASTM D93 uses a Pensky-Martens manual or automated closed cup tester. A sample is placed in the closed cup and is heated. An ignition source is directed into the cup at regular intervals until the sample vapor ignites or ‘flashes.’
Sample quantity required: 150 ml
ASTM D93 corresponds to ISO 2719 and IP 34.
We also perform flash point testing by ASTM D3278, ASTM D92, ASTM E659, ASTM D56, and ISO 2719. These different test methods use different instruments or procedures or are used for certain sample types. Click on the test method number to learn more about each test.
