Endpoint:
appearance / physical state / colour
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
25-06-2018 to 29-06-2018
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Visual observation of physical state and appearance by the testing laboratory
Qualifier:
no guideline required
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Visual observation of physical state and appearance by the testing laboratory
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Remarks:
inspected: July 2017 ; signature: November 2017
Physical state at 20°C and 1013 hPa:
liquid
Form:
liquid
Colour:
clear colourless or colourless
Substance type:
organic

Applicant assessment indicates: the definition of 'clear colourless' or 'colourless' is synonymous, in that there is no assertion of turbidity and/or clouding or similar terminology which deviates from clearness or clarity. A colourless liquid would be expected to be ‘clear’.

Conclusions:
The physical state and appearance of the test material were evaluated by visual observation. The test material was determined to be a clear colourless liquid or alternatively a colourless liquid.
Executive summary:

The appearance of the test substance has been determined as:

Form: liquid

Colour: clear colourless or alternatively: colourless

Other: During visual observation of physical state and appearance by the testing laboratory the test material were evaluated and determined to be a clear colourless or alternatively a colourless liquid. Both descriptions should be considered synonymous and an assertion as to the lack of turbidity or similar phenomena.

liquid
Form:
liquid
Colour:
colourless

Additional information

During visual observation(s) of physical state and appearance by the testing laboratory the test material(s) were evaluated and determined to be a clear colourless or alternatively a colourless liquid. Both descriptions should be considered synonymous and an assertion as to the lack of turbidity or similar phenomena.
