Reference
Endpoint:
viscosity
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2012
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Qualifier:
no guideline available
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The kinematic viscosity at 25 ⁰C was determined using a capillary viscometer with Cannon-Ubbelodhe viscometer tube #50. Temperature control was provided by a thermostatically-controlled water bath. The dynamic viscosity was then calculated using density data at 25 ⁰C which were obtained using a Mettler DE40 oscillating tube densitometer.

GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
capillary viscometer (static)
Standard covering the apparatus used:
The accuracy of the viscometer was validated by determining the dynamic viscosity of standard reference oil N2 from Cannon instruments at 25 ⁰C. Using the density data supplied with the standard, the dynamic viscosity was determined to be 2.638 mPa-s, compared to the reference value of 2.628 mPa-s.
