Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The value reported by this handbook for the flash point of benzotrichloride is equal to 108°C. This value is assumed valid at atmospheric pressure.
Executive summary:

Data from handbook:The value reported by this handbook for the flash point of benzotrichloride is equal to 108°C. This value is assumed valid at atmospheric pressure.

As the methodology used (closed cup method) provides a better approximation of the flash point than the open cup method, it is selected as the key study
