Principles of method if other than guideline:
The viscometer measures the dynamic viscosity and density of a substance according to ASTM D7042. From this result, the viscometer automatically calculates the kinematic viscosity and delivers measurement results which are equivalent to ISO 3104 or ASTM D445.

1st determination: 1.0457 g/cm3

2nd determination: 1.0457 g/cm3

Conclusions:
Density = 1.0457 kg/L at 20°C
Executive summary:

The density of the test substance has been determined to be 1.0457 kg/L according to ASTM D 7042 (which is equivalent to ISO 3104 / ASTM D445) with a rotational viscometer. This result corresponds to a relative density of 1.046 [the relative density is the ratio of the density (mass of a unit volume) of a substance to the density of water, determined at 4 °C (at which temperature, water has its maximum density, i.e. 0.999975 kg/L).].

Description of key information

The density of the test substance has been determined to be 1.0457 kg/L according to ASTM D 7042 (which is equivalent to ISO 3104 / ASTM D445) with a rotational viscometer. This result corresponds to a relative density of 1.046 [the relative density is the ratio of the density (mass of a unit volume) of a substance to the density of water, determined at 4 °C (at which temperature, water has its maximum density, i.e. 0.999975 kg/L).].
