Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 3 (flammable liquids) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
According to the variability of the sample due to fact that it is an UVCB (essential oil) the flash point of the test item was in the worst case 58 °C ± 1 °C.

Executive summary:

The flash point of the test substance was determined under ISO 11018 method of 1997.

The flash point is below the classification thresholds of 60°C of the CLP regulation 1272/02008. Therefore the susbstance is classified as flammable liquids category 3.
