- Remarks on result:
- other: to water at 4°C
- Conclusions:
- The measured density of the test item is 1268.4±9.26 kg/m3 at 20 °C. The relative density of the sample at 20 °C to water at 4 °C is 1.27.
- Executive summary:
The relative density test was carried out according to OECD guideline No 109, EU method A.3 and OPPTS 830.7300.
The test was performed at a temperature of 20 ± 0.5 °C. A known weight of the test item was placed in the sample cell and its volume determined by the density tester. The density of the test item was calculated from its weight and of the defined volume.
The measured density of the test item was 1268.4±9.26 kg/m3 at 20 °C. The relative density of the sample at 20 °C to water at 4 °C is 1.27.

Description of key information
The relative density test was carried out according to OECD guideline No 109, EU method A.3 and OPPTS 830.7300.
The test was performed at a temperature of 20 ± 0.5 °C. A known weight of the test item was placed in the sample cell and its volume determined by the density tester. The density of the test item was calculated from its weight and of the defined volume.
The measured density of the test item was 1268.4 ± 9.26 kg/m3 at 20 °C. The relative densityof the sample at 20 °C to water at 4 °C is 1.27.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Relative density at 20C:
- 1.27
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
