Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Gasoline (motor and aviation gasoline) is a low viscosity mobile liquid. All substances in the low boiling point (gasoline) naphthas category are are liquid at ambient temperature and pressure.
Executive summary:

Gasoline is a low viscosity, mobile liquid at ambient temperature and pressure. There is no guideline method for this endpoint. Data presented based on visual observation, supported by data on melting point and viscosity. This statement is considered reliable with restriction and has been reviewed by experts from the CONCAWE consortium.
