Additional information

A measured kinematic viscosity value of 1.98 mm2/s at 20°C was determined for the substance using a relevant test method and in compliance with a known quality system (ISO 9001:2008). The result is considered to be reliable and is selected as key study. The key study is supported by a predicted kinematic viscosity value of 2 mm2/s at 20°C which was determined for the substance using a validated QSAR estimation method.

In secondary sources to which reliability could not be assigned, viscosity value of 1.9 mm2/s at 20 and 25°C was reported for the substance.
