Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: The test method to determine Pourpoint is ASTM D5950 that covers determination of pour point by an automatic instrument that tilts the test jar during cooling and detects movement of the surface of the test specimen with an optical device
- Version / remarks:
- ASTM D5950 for pourpoint
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The pour point is an index of the lowest temperature of its utility for certain applications. The test method to determine Pourpoint is ASTM D5950 that covers the determination of pour point by an automatic instrument that tilts the test jar during cooling and detects movement of the surface of the test specimen with an optical device. This test method is designed to cover the range of temperatures from −66 °C to +51 °C. Test results from this test method can be determined at 1 °C or 3 °C intervals.
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Other quality assurance:
- ISO/IEC 17025 (General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories)
- Type of method:
- pour point

- Hydrocarbons from mixed waste plastics, thermo-mechanical depolymerization condensate
- Molecular formula:
- C5-C29
- IUPAC Name:
- Hydrocarbons from mixed waste plastics, thermo-mechanical depolymerization condensate
- Test material form:
- liquid
- Details on test material:
- Hydrocarbons from mixed waste plastics, thermo-mechanical depolymerization condensate. It is a complex combination of hydrocarbons as described in section one.

Results and discussion
Melting / freezing point
- Key result
- Melting / freezing pt.:
- ca. -27 °C
- Remarks on result:
- other: According to ASTM D5950
- Remarks:
- Detailed explanation of the test is described in the ASTM D5950 method. Due to business reasons, detailed test procedure is reported in laboratory reports and only method number is provided.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The pour point of the substance was determined to be -27 C.
- Executive summary:
The pour point is an index of the lowest temperature of its utility for certain applications. The test method to determine Pourpoint is ASTM D5950 that covers the determination of pour point by an automatic instrument that tilts the test jar during cooling and detects movement of the surface of the test specimen with an optical device. This test method is designed to cover the range of temperatures from −66 °C to +51 °C. Test results from this test method can be determined at 1 °C or 3 °C intervals. Therefore, pour point of the intermediate substance was determined to be -27 C based on specified ASTM method number.
