In the main test the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 91.0 °C.

The average measured flash point is corrected to the ambient pressure to be 91.26 °C

The resulting average corrected flash point rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C is 91.0 °C.

 

Final Results

The test item has a flash point of 91.0 °C (average corrected and rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C) according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. Flash Point, CIPAC MT 12 (2009) and Guideline OCSPP 830.6315 (1996).

Conclusions:
A flash point value of 91.0 °C (at 1022 hPa) was determined for the test substance according to E.U. Method A.9.
