Executive summary:

The viscosity (cSt) of the substance was determined at two temperatures according to procedures given in ASTM D445-10 Standard Test Method for Kinematic Viscosity of Transparent and Opaque Liquids (and Caluclation of Dynamic Viscosity). The result was 1846 cSt at 40 °C

Description of key information

Viscosity of the test substance was determined to be 1846 mm2/s at 40 °C (ASTM D445-10).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Viscosity:
1 846 mm²/s (static)
at the temperature of:
40 °C

Additional information

The test item is liquid at 40 °C. However, it is not a hydrocarbon with a kinematic viscosity of ≤ 20.5 mm2/s and consideration of the substance as an aspiration hazard is not required.
