Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 229 ± 2°C.
Executive summary:

The flash point of the test item was determined to be 229 ± 2°C, using a closed cup equilibrium method designed to be compatible with Method A.9 Flash Point of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.
