Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions (e.g. non-GLP)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: DIN ISO 3016 / ASTM D 97
GLP compliance:
no
Other quality assurance:
other: The laboratory complied with a quality management system according to DIN EN ISO 9001 : 2008 and DIN EN ISO 14001 : 2005.
Type of method:
pour point
Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
8 °C
Atm. press.:
1 013 hPa
Remarks on result:
other: arithmetic mean of 2 replicate determinations

Two measurements were performed, with the following results:

7 °C;

9 °C;

resulting in a mean value of 8 °C for the pour point.

Conclusions:
Pour point (DIN ISO 3016 / ASTM D97): 8 °C at 1013 hPa.
Executive summary:

The melting point (pour point, determined similar / equivalent to DIN ISO 3016 / ASTM D 97) was determined to be 8 °C (mean of two replicate measurements: 7°C; 9 °C).

The laboratory complied with a quality management system according to DIN EN ISO 9001 : 2008 and DIN EN ISO 14001 : 2005.
