Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
In a GLP study conducted according to ASTM test method D97-87, the pour point of EC# 457-320-2 was determined to be 42oC.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
In a GLP study conducted according to ASTM test method D97-87, the pour point of EC# 457-320-2 was determined. Samples of the test material were cooled from approximately 45oC in 3oC steps in a cloud and pour point apparatus and the flow characteristics observed at each step. Two replicate studies were conducted.
The lowest temperature at which movement was detected in a sample of test material held horizontally in the apparatus for five seconds (the pour point) was 42oC in the first study and 39oC in the second study. As measurements were made at 3oC intervals, it was considered that the mean value could not be quoted to any greater degree of accuracy, and hence the higher of the two results (42oC) is reported as the mean.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
