Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Additional information

A proprietary study is available from GKA Competence Centre Analytics (2008) for the streams 68477-39-4 (kinematic viscosity 1.07 mm2/s at 20ºC and 0.83 mm2/s at 40ºC; dynamic viscosity 0.95mPa.s at 20ºC and 0.73 mPa.s at 40ºC). This study was conducted in accordance with a standard guideline and are considered reliable for assessment. The data from these studies will be read across to other members of the category.

RÜTGERS Germany GmbH, Analytisches Zentrallabor (AZL) (2010) and RÜTGERS, Belgium, Dept. Quality & Environment (2009) provided data for the stream 64742-94-5 (kinematic viscosity was 1.9 mm2/s at 25ºC and 6.78 mm2/s at 20ºC) via a signed Certificate of Analysis and Company letter, respectively. This data provided details on the method used and was considered adequate for assessment.

The mean of the kinematic viscosity values for the category is 3.25 mm2/s at 20°C and this has been used to complete the 'key value for chemical safety assessment'.
