Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 155 ±2 °C.
Executive summary:

Test System The determination was carried out using a closed cup flash point tester , using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A9 Flash Point of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.

An aliquot (2 mL for temperatures up to 100 ºC and 4 mL for temperatures above 100 ºC) of the test item was injected into the sample cup of the Setaflash 30000-0 tester. The sample was heated and allowed to equilibrate at the set temperature. The test flame was introduced into the sample cup for approximately 2½ seconds by sliding the cup shutter open. Observations were made for ignition of the vapor. If no ignition occurred, the temperature was increased and the test flame re-introduced. This was repeated until the lowest reproducible temperature at which a flash occurred, using a fresh sample, was determined.

The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 155 ±2 °C.
