Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Temp.:
20°C
Parameter:
kinematic viscosity (in mm²/s)
Value:
2
Conclusions:
The estimated viscosity at 20ºC is 2,3 cSt.
Executive summary:

The estimated viscosity of Hydrocarbons, C14-C17, n-alkanes, <2% aromatics at 20ºC is 2,3 cSt.

Description of key information

The viscosity of the substance Hydrocarbons, C14-C17, n-alkanes, <2% aromatics, measured according to the ASTM D 445 method, is between 2.5 and 3.5 mm2/s at 20°C and minimum 2.25 mm2/s t 40°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

There is no data available for Hydrocarbons, C14-C16, n-alkanes, <2% aromatics. However, data is available for Hydrocarbons, C14-C17, n-alkanes, <2% aromatics and is presented based on analogue read across.
