Key result
Temp.:
20°C
Parameter:
dynamic viscosity (in mPa s)
Value:
3 800
Remarks on result:
other: reported as 3800 cps

- Typical values: 3000 - 5000 cps @ 20 °C.

- Considering that 1 cP = 1 mPa·s = 0.001 Pa·s, the measured viscosity is thus 3800 mPa·s.

Conclusions:
The viscosity of the test substance was determined to be 3800 cps at 20 °C.
Executive summary:

Using a Brookfield DV-I viscometer the viscosity of the test substance was determined to be 3800 cps at 20 °C. Considering that 1 cP = 1 mPa·s = 0.001 Pa·s, the measured viscosity is thus 3800 mPa·s.
