The pour point for Hydrocarbons, C9, aromatics is <-100°C.
Executive summary:

A standard guideline was followed and the values have been confirmed by the company. This data is therefore considered reliable and suitable for use for this endpoint. The pour point for Hydrocarbons, C9, aromatics is <-100°C.

Description of key information

Hydrocarbons, C9-C10, aromatics, >1% Naphthalene are a combination of Hydrocarbons, C9 Aromatics and Hydrocarbons, C10-C12 Aromatics. Read across data is available for Hydrocarbons, C9 Aromatics and Hydrocarbons, C10-C12 Aromatics and the worst case scenario for each end point has been presented.

The pour point of the Hydrocarbons, C9, aromatics is <-30°C.

The pour point of Hydrocarbons, C10, aromatics, >1% naphthalene is <-10°C.

This data is used for read across to Hydrocarbons, C9-C10, aromatics, >1% Naphthalene.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
