- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- Measurment date: 29 July 2016.
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

- Executive summary:
Introduction
The pour point of the test substance was determined using the following method: ASTM D 97 -16.
Method
The test item is poured into the test jar to level mark. The test jar is closed with the cork carrying the higher-pour thermometer. The test item is cooled without stirring to 9°C above the expected pour point. Pour point are expressed in integers that are positive or negative multiples of 3°C. The test is repeated three times.
Results
Run Result (pour point) 1 -18°C
2
-18°C
3
-18°C
The final result is expressed as the mean of all the runs (mean =-18°C)
Conclusion
The pour point of the test item is -18°C at 1012 hPa.
Reference
The test was run three times with the following results:
Run | Result (pour point) |
1 | -18°C |
2 | -18°C |
3 | -18°C |
The final result is expressed as the mean of all the runs (mean = -18°C)
Description of key information
The pour point was determined as the nature of the substance means it is unlikely to have a defined melting point.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Melting / freezing point at 101 325 Pa:
- -18 °C
