Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Reference
Endpoint:
relative density
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
Testing was conducted on 18 March 2010.
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
This study is conducted according to an appropriate method and under the conditions of GLP and therefore the study is considered to be acceptable and to adequately satisfy the regulatory requirement as a key study for this endpoint. The rationale for reliability has not been amended despite the use as read across data. This approach is justified on the basis that although the test material is a hydrated form of the substance to be registered, the relevant study observations / measurements have been made with a view to determining the properties on the anhydrous magnesium hydrogenorthophosphate.
Qualifier:
according to guideline

no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Remarks:
(Date of GLP inspection: 2009-09-15 Date of Signature on GLP certificate: 2009-11-26)
Type of method:
air comparison pycnometer (for solids)
Type:
relative density
Density:
2.17
