As the difference between results was less than 0.03 g/ml, hence two trials were enough.

Conclusions:
The average calculated relative density at 20ºC temperature of the test item was 1.125.
Executive summary:

The relative density of the test item has been determined using the Gay-Lussac pycnometer according to EU method A.3 and CIPAC MT 3.2.1, following GLP. The method was based in measuring the mass of the substance occupying a unit volume at 20ºC. The density is calculated by dividing the mass of the tested material by the volume of the pycnometer. The average mesured absolute density at 20ºC temperature was 1.125 g/ml. The average calculated relative density at 20ºC temperature of the test item was 1.125.

Description of key information

Key study: EU method A.3 and CIPAC MT 3.2.1. GLP study. The average calculated relative density at 20ºC temperature of the test item was 1.125.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.125
