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 pour point of Hydrocarbons, C14-C18, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2-30% aromatics is <-10°C according to testing methodology ASTM D 5950.
The pour point of Hydrocarbons, C16-C20, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2-30% aromatics is <0°C according to testing methodology ASTM D 5950.
The pour point of Hydrocarbons, C12-C18, isoalkanes, cyclics, 2-30% aromatics is <-70°C according to testing methodology ASTM D 97.

Additional information
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.
