The density of the test substance at 20°C is

P20=2.578 g/cm3or 2578 kg/rn3.

The relative density is calculated according to the formula:

D41= PTIP4(water)

D4T                  relative density of the test substance

pT                    measured density of the test substance [kg/rn3] at temperature T [°C]

p4 (water)         density of water @ 4°C 999.972 kg/rn3 (Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 64 Ed.,1984)

The relative density of the test substance was calculated as:D04/20=2.578

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The density of the test item was tested to be 2.578 g/cm3 at 20 °C (relative density D4/20° = 2.578).
Executive summary:

The density and relative density of the test item were determined according to OECD guideline no. 109 [adopted on 27 July 1995] and EU test method A.3 [Council Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008] with the gas displacement pycnometer.

Density (20°C) = 2.578 g/cm3, Relative density D4/20° = 2.578
