Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Executive summary:

The dynamic viscosity of the test item was calculated by its density as 2.40 mPa*s at 20 °C and as 1.73 mPa*s at 40 °C. The density was measured by an oscillating densitometer. According to the OECD guideline 114 the kinematic viscosity was measured with 2.29 mm2/s at 20 °C and 1.68 mm2/s at 40 °C, resp. (BASF AG, 2010).
