Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The flash point of the test item was (corrected value): 95.0 ± 0.5 °C.
Executive summary:

In a study (Defitraces, 2010), the flash point of Guetol was evaluated according to the A9 method, with the closed cup system.

The flash point of the test item was (corrected value) 95.0 ± 0.5 °C at 1013 hPa.
