Conclusions:
boiling temperature range: 318 to 486°C.
Executive summary:

The boiling temperature range of the test material 'Paraffin waxes (Fischer-Tropsch), full range, C15-C50, branched and linear' was determined to be 318 to 486°C using Standard Test Method for Boiling Range Distribution of Petroleum Fractions by Gas Chromatography, ASTM D2887-06.

Description of key information
