viscosity
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
1 November 2012
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study

 Determination  Temperature (ºC)  Time (s)  Viscosity (mm2/s)  Mean Viscosity(mm2/s)
 A  20.0 ± 0.5  486  4.62  4.62
 B  20.0 ± 0.5  486  4.62  
 A  40.0 ± 0.5  299  2.84  2.85
 B  40.0 ± 0.5  300  2.85  
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the test, the viscosity of the test material was determined to 4.62 mm2/s at 20ºC and 2.85 mm2/s at 40ºC.
Executive summary:

The viscosity of (Z)-3-hexenyl salicylate (LESA) was determined using a capillary viscometer method, designed to be compatible with Method 114 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 12 May 1981. The results are as follows:

 Temperature (ºC)  Viscosity (mm2/s)
 20.0 ± 0.5  4.62
 40.0 ± 0.5  2.85
