Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash point of the test material was determined to be 182 ± 2 °C
Executive summary:

The flash point of the test material was determined in a study which was conducted under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guideline EU Method A.9, using the closed-cup method.

Under the conditions of the study, the flash point of the test material was found to be 182 °C at atmospheric pressure.
