Atmospheric pressure =  100.8 kPa
Observed flash point  =  166 °C
Corrected flash point =  166.1 °C

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash point of the test item has been determined to be 166 ±2 °C.
Executive summary:

The substance was assessed for its flash point, using a closed cup equilibrium method designed to be compatible with Method A.9 Flash Point of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008. Th eresult found was 166 ±2 °C, corrected to atmospheric pressure of 101.3 kPa being 166.1 °C.
