Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

Density determinations for a number of refined other lubricant base oils ranged from 0.81 to 0.97 g/cm3at 15°C using EN ISO 21285/ASTM D4052 (CONCAWE, 2010a). An additional range of 0.857to 0.950 g/cm3was obtainedfollowing ASTMD4052 (CONCAWE, 1997).As a result, these substances are expected to float if released to water.

The studies below were conducted using International Organization for Standardization (ISO) method ISO 12185
