test procedure in accordance with generally accepted scientific standards and described in sufficient detail
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Test Guideline 114 (Viscosity of Liquids)
Principles of method if other than guideline:

Key result
Temp.:
40°C
Parameter:
dynamic viscosity (in mPa s)
Value:
ca. 520
Remarks on result:
other: Coverted from cPs

Kinematic density calculated using Density 0.992

Conclusions:
The substance is considered to be sufficiently viscous to avoid the requirement for classification as aspiration hazard.

Description of key information

Measured over a range of temperatures between ca 0 C to 50 C. 
  
Kinematic viscosity calculated using density of 0.992 based on static viscosity of 524 mPa S

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Viscosity:
524 mPa · s (dynamic)
at the temperature of:
40 °C

Additional information

The kinematice viscosity of 532 mm2/s at 40 C greater than the limit for classification as aspiration toxic material.
