Description
Paraffin oil high viscosity is a ROTI®Pharm Excipient mineral oil conforming to Ph.Eur., intended for pharmaceutical excipient and laboratory applications that require a higher-viscosity paraffin grade. It carries CAS number 8042-47-5 and EG nr. 232-455-8, with an approximate density of 0,88 g/cm³, a flash point above 210 °C, and a boiling point of 600 °C. Physical property data support grade selection versus low-viscosity paraffin oils sharing the same CAS identity but differing flow behaviour. Laboratories and production support teams can use this ROTI®Pharm quality material when a denser, higher-flash-point paraffin oil is needed for excipient roles. format is practical for controlled dispensing and inventory in chemical stores serving regulated and research environments that document mineral oil specifications carefully.
This article is part of Viscometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.

What is this article?
Paraffin oil high viscosity, ROTI®Pharm Excipient, 1 l, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Viscometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Lab instruments.
A capillary viscometer times the flow of a liquid through a tube. A rotational viscometer twists a spindle in the liquid. Both need a stated temperature. Kinematic and dynamic viscosity are different numbers. The capillary size has to put the flow time in the range the method allows.
Density is mass divided by volume. A hydrometer floats at a depth that depends on the density of the liquid. A pycnometer is a vessel of known volume that is weighed full. Viscosity is the resistance to flow. A capillary viscometer times how long a volume takes to fall through a tube. Both measurements need a stated temperature, because liquids change density and viscosity as they warm. The units trace to the BIPM and to NIST.
