Calculation of Results

Equations

Density of Test Item

The density of the test item was calculated using the following equation:

m3 – m1

ρ = ---------------------- * ρH2O

m2 – m1

with

ρ = density in g/cm3

m1 = mass of empty pycnometer in g

m2 = mass of pycnometer with water in g

m3 = mass of pycnometer with test item in g

ρH2O = density of water at test temperature (0.9982 g*cm-3at 20.0 °C)

 

The relative density of the test item has the same number value, but no unit.

 

Calculation of Error

The error of the determination method can be calculated from:

2*∆m*100%          2*∆m*100%

∆ρ = ---------------------- + ----------------------

m3 – m1                 m2 – m1

with

∆ρ = relative error of the measured density

∆m = absolute error of single weighing (0.0003 g)

 

Calculation of Relative Standard Deviation

The RSD was calculated as followed:

sd*100

RSD = --------------------

densitymean

RSD = Relative Standard Deviation in %

sd = Standard Deviation in g*cm-3

 

The following values were calculated.

Conclusions:
The density of the test item Trixene AS was calculated as 1.0723 ± 0.0001 g/cm3 at 20.0 ±0.4 °C.
This value is the mean of two independent determinations ± the standard deviation.
Standard deviation shows very good correlation of the two determinations
Executive summary:

Determination of the Density of Trixene AS according to OECD 109 resp. EU A.3

 

Findings and Results:

Using the pycnometer method, a density of 1.0723 ± 0.0001 g/cm3 at 20.0 ± 0.4 °C was measured. This value is the mean of two independent determinations ± the standard deviation. Standard deviation shows very good correlation of the two determinations.
