Conclusion

The flash point of the test item was 43.5°C ± 0.5°C (corrected value).

Interpretation of results:
Category 3 (flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
A flash point value of 43.5 +/-0.5 °C at 1013 hPa was determined in a reliable study conducted according to an appropriate test protocol.
