Conclusions:
A kinematic viscosity value of 2.90 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.

Description of key information

Kinematic viscosity: 2.90 mm2/s at 20°C (DIN 51562)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Viscosity:
2.9 mm²/s (static)
at the temperature of:
20 °C

Additional information

A kinematic viscosity value of 2.90 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.

In a secondary source to which reliability could not be assigned, kinematic viscosity value of 2.5 mm2/s at 20°C was reported for the substance.
