Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Supporting data is available for Hydrocarbons C12-C18, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2-30% aromatics. However, key data is available for structural analogues, Hydrocarbons, C14-C18, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2-30% aromatics and Hydrocarbons, C16-C20, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2-30% aromatics and presented in the dossier. This data is read across to Hydrocarbons C12-C18, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2-30% aromatics based on analogue read across and a discussion and report on the read across strategy is provided as an attachment in IUCLID Section 13.

 

The viscosity of Hydrocarbons, C14-C18, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2-30% aromatics at 20°C is 3.5 to 10.0 mm2/s according to the ASTM D 7042 testing methodology.

 

The viscosity of Hydrocarbons, C16-C20, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2-30% aromatics at 20°C is 4.0 to 10.0 mm2/s according to the ASTM D 7042 testing methodology.

 

The viscosity of Hydrocarbons, C12-C18, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2-30% aromatics is 2.86 mm2/s at 40°C according to the ASTM D 445 testing methodology.
