Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

40°C Determination

 Rotational Speed (rpm)  Shear Rate (Sec-1) Shear Stress (N/m2  Viscosity (mPa.s)  Temperature (°C) Torque (%) 
 0.5  0.660 3.40   5087  40.0  84.8
 0.5  0.660  3.41  5165  40.0  86.1
 0.5  0.660  3.38  5111  40.0  85.3

60°C Determination

Rotational Speed (rpm)   Shear Rate (Sec-1)  Shear Stress (N/m2     Viscosity (mPa.s)   Temperature (°C)  Torque (%)  
 2.0 2.64  3.19  1209  60.0  80.6
 2.0  2.64  3.19  1209  60.0  80.6
Conclusions:
The viscosity of the test material was determined to be 5121 mPa.s at 40.0 ± 0.5 °C and 1209 mPa.s at 60.0 ± 0.5 °C.
Executive summary:

The viscosity 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 and Method 830.7100 of the OCSPP Guidelines. The results are as followed:

 Temperature (°C)  Viscosity (mPa.s)
 40.0 ± 0.5 5121 
 60.0 ± 0.5  1209
