Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Well-documented guideline study on a well defined test substance.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Test Guideline 114 (Viscosity of Liquids)
GLP compliance:
not specified
Type of method:
rotational viscometer (dynamic)
Temp.:
20°C
Parameter:

Value:
52.4
Temp.:
40°C
Parameter:
dynamic viscosity (in mPa s)
Value:
20.6
Conclusions:
The viscosity of the test substance was determined using a TA Instrument Model DHR-3 Rheometer equipped with a steel cone and plate. The viscosity of the test substance is 52.4 cP at 20°C and 20.6 cP at 40°C.

Description of key information

Additional information

The viscosity of the test substance was assessed according to OECD Test Guideline 114 using a TA Instrument Model DHR-3 Rheometer equipped with a steel cone and plate. The plate diameter is 60 mm and Geometry Gap is 50 micron. The rheometer calibration was verified using certified reference material (silicon oil from Cannon) under the same instrument conditions. The viscosity of the test substance is 52.4 cP at 20 °C and 20.6 cP at 40 °C.
