Executive summary:

Viscosity. The viscosity of the test item was determined using a capillary viscometer method, designed to be compatible with Method 114 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 02 October 2012. The results are as follows:

Temperature (ºC)              Mean Viscosity (mm2/s)

20.0 ± 0.5                                   6.72

40.0 ± 0.5                                   3.64
