Executive summary:

The description of appearance and color of GALDEN LMW was based on a visual evaluation of the test item by comparison with a reference fluid (demineralised water) according to Solvay internal methods PF 29/142 "Visual determination of appearance", and PF 29/143 "Visual determination of color". The evaluations was performed in the laboratory at 20°C and at a pressure of 101,3 kPa.

Six samples from three different batches of GALDEN HT55 and HT70 were analyzed.

The appearance of GALDEN LMW was found to be clear and the color was found to be colorless.

Description of key information

GALDEN LMW is a clear, colourless and odourless liquid.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The description of appearance and color of GALDEN LMW was based on a visual evaluation of six different samples from three bathes of GALDEN HT55 and three batches of GALDEN HT70. The evaluation was perfomed by comparison with a reference fluid (demineralised water) according to Solvay internal methods PF 29/142 (Visual determination of appearance) and PF 29/143 (Visual determination of color).

Test methods are well documented and methods and results are scientifically valid.

GALDEN LMW is a clear, colourless and odourless liquid.
