Interpretation of results:
Category 3 (flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The flash point of the test material was assessed according to EU Method A9 and determined to be 59 ± 2 °C.
Executive summary:

The flash point of the test item was determined to be 59 ± 2 °C, using a closed cup equilibrium method designed to be compatible with

Method A9 Flash Point of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.
