Description of key information
The viscosity of 1,2-dichloroethane was determined to be 0.829 cP (centi-poises = mPa s) at 20°C and 0.775 cP at 25°C (Mumford, 1950).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Viscosity:
- 0.829 mPa · s (dynamic)
- at the temperature of:
- 20 °C
Additional information
In the key study (Mumford, 1950), the viscosity of 1,2-dichloroethane was determined in small Ostwald-type viscometers conforming in general characteristics to the standads laid down in british Standard Specification No. 188 -1929, and calibrated with water and/or standard sugar solutions. The viscosity was determined at two temperatures (20 and 25°C). The means of at least two determinations, performed with different bottles were recorded for each temperature. The viscosity of 1,2-dichloroethane was determined to be 0.829 cP (centi-poises = mPa x s) at 20°C and 0.775 cP at 25°C.
The measured value is supported by the findings in a supporting study (Goelles, 1979), where a value of 0.831 mPa s at 20°C was determined.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
