Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The pourpoint of the substance was found to be below -57 C.
Executive summary:

The pour point is an index of the lowest temperature of its utility for certain applications. The test method to determine Pourpoint is ASTM D5950 that covers the determination of pour point by an automatic instrument that tilts the test jar during cooling and detects movement of the surface of the test specimen with an optical device. This test method is designed to cover the range of temperatures from −66 °C to +51 °C. Test results from this test method can be determined at 1 °C or 3 °C intervals.
