Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Version / remarks:
OJ No. L383A, 29.12.92
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of method:
pycnometer method
Specific details on test material used for the study:
Batch No.: 960509
Purity: 92.3%
Type:
relative density
Density:
1.44 other: dimensionless
Temp.:
20 °C
Conclusions:
The relative density is 1.44.
Executive summary:

The relative density was determined using the pycnometer method as described in OECD 109 and ECA3.

The relative density was determined to be 1.44.

Endpoint:
tap density
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 109 (Density of Liquids and Solids)
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The bulk and tap density of the powder was measured using a measuring cylinder. A weighed amount of the powder was placed in a measuring cylinder and the volume was recorded (bulk density). The cylinder was tapped to settle the powder until no further volume reduction occurred (tap density). The volume of the powder was recorded. It is assumed that the particle size of the powder is less than 1mm and any lumps are easily broken.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
pour and tap (for solids)
Type:
bulk density
Density:
0.81 g/cm³
Temp.:
22 °C
Key result
Type:
tap density
Density:
1.02 g/cm³
Temp.:
22 °C
Conclusions:
Bulk and tap density was determined to be 0.81 and 1.02 g/cm3, respectively.
Executive summary:

The bulk and tap density of the powder was measured using a measuring cylinder. Bulk and tap density was determined to be 0.81 and 1.02 g/cm3, respectively.
