In the main test, the lowest temperature where an ignition was observed was 152.0 °C. The measured flash point is corrected to the ambient pressure to be 152.2 °C. The resulting corrected flash point rounded down to the nearest multiple of 0.5 °C is 152.0 °C.
Conclusion
According to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.9. Flash Point and DIN EN ISO 3679 (2004), the test item has a flash point of 152.0 °C.
