Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
other: ASTM D97 (Standard Test Method for Pour Point of Petroleum Products)
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
other: IP 15 (Petroleum products - Determination of pour point)
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
other: ISO 3016 (Petroleum products -- Determination of pour point)
Principles of method if other than guideline:
ASTM D97 is included in OECD Guideline 102, as a method for the measurement of pour point.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
pour point
Melting / freezing pt.:
12 °C
Atm. press.:
ca. 1 013 hPa
Remarks on result:
other: Atm. pressure was not reported, but normal conditions (ca. 1013 hPa) can be assumed.
Conclusions:
The pour point of Monoesters of C16 and C18 (branched and linear) fatty acids with decan-1-ol is 12 ºC at ca. 1013 hPa
Executive summary:

The pour point of Monoesters of C16 and C18 (branched and linear) fatty acids with decan-1-ol was determined to be 12 ºC using a method equivalent with standard method ASTM D97; IP 15 and ISO 3016.

Description of key information

Pour point = 12 °C at ca. 1013 hPa (ASTM D97 equivalent)
