Description of key information
The relative density of octadecan-1-ol is 0.91 at 20°C
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Relative density at 20C:
- 0.91
Additional information
A relative density value of 0.91 at at 20°C was determined for the substance using a relevant test method in accordance with DIN EN ISO 1183-1. The result is considered to be reliable and is selected as key study.
It is supported by a value of 0.81 at significantly elevated temperature (59°C), taken from a reliable handbook.
Discussion of trends in the Category of C6-24 linear and essentially-linear aliphatic alcohols:
No relevant trends; the relative density values across the category are consistently similar, within the range 0.80 - 0.90 at ambient temperature.
