- Endpoint:
- viscosity
- Type of information:
- read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Justification for type of information:
- The available identification data for the Target and the Source substance support the read-across hypothesis. Adequate, reliable and available scientific information indicate that the Target and Source substance have, or are very likely to have, similar (eco)toxicological properties. There are no indications that constituents other than those identified for the substances or impurities may influence the validity of the read-across. There is no evidence that additional toxicological mechanisms, other than those identified in the read-across hypothesis, may be acting or have an adverse effect on the validity of the read-across.
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- read-across source
- Temp.:

- Parameter:

- Value:

- Remarks on result:
- other: At 1100 to 1400 °C test temperature
- Conclusions:
- Typical slags tested at 1100 to 1400 °C had a viscosity of 150 - 1500 cP, depending on the exact temperature and composition of the slags
- Executive summary:
At a temperature of 1100 -1400 °C liquid slags have a viscosity of 150 - 1500 cPoise

Information reported in Pa s
Description of key information
Under standard conditions, slags are solid.
At temperatures of > 1000 °C viscosity may decrease
ABS at 1600 °C: 250 mPa s (dynamic)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Ferrous slags resemble natural stones and are solid at ambient temperatures. Data for molten ferrous slags are not relevant at ambient temperatures.
Typical slags tested at 1100 to 1400 °C had a viscosity of 150 - 1500 cP (Krajewski and Krueger 1984).
