69 ± 2°C.

The flash point and auto-ignition temperature of the test material have been determined. Methods employed were those specified in Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008, Part A: Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties. Testing was conducted between 22 December 2009 and 23 December 2009. The flash point was determined using a closed cup equilibrium method, Method A9 Flash Point of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008. The flash point of the test material has been determined to be 69 ± 2°C.
