Remarks on result:

completely miscible

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

The test material has been determined to be completely miscible with water above 45.0 % (w/w) at 20.0 +-0.5 °C. Below this level, a small percentage of test material and/or impurities remained in excess. However, as this was a minor amount, the test material was considered to be essentially miscible with water.
