Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
appearance / physical state / colour
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
10 July 2017 - 19 January 2018
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Endpoint was determined via visual inspection, not according to a prescribed guideline.
Remarks:
Visual assessment was conducted as part of standard proceedure of seperate GLP study. Any deviation from the expected appearance/physical state/colour of the test item prior to testing would need to be reported and investigated. No deviation from the expected appearance/physical state/colour was reported in this instance.
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Principle of test: Visual observation.
- Short description of test conditions: Prior to commencement of a GLP study examining a different physico-chemical endpoint the test item was visually observed and recorded under laboratory conditions, at room temperature (circa 22 °C).
- Parameters analysed / observed: State and colour of the test item at room temperature.
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
liquid
Key result
Form:
liquid: viscous
Colour:
Yellow
Substance type:
organic
Conclusions:
The test item was found to be a highly viscous yellow liquid as per the manufacturers description of the test item.
Executive summary:

Non-Guideline – The physical state and colour of the test item was determined using visual assessment.

Prior to commencement of a GLP study examining a different physico-chemical endpoint the test item was visually assessed and recorded under laboratory conditions, at room temperature (circa 22 °C).  

The sample of test item was visually assessed at room temperature and determined to be highly viscous yellow liquid.

Description of key information

Appearance/physical state/colour: highly viscous yellow liquid at room temperature (circa 22 °C, 295 K) and atmospheric pressure; EU A.1.; S Seitz (2017)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
liquid
