Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Weight of evidence approach based on four peer-reviewed values from handbooks (1.32 g/cm³ at 40°C, 1.33 g/cm³ at 40°C, 1.3214g/cm³ at 39°C and 1.32 g/cm³ at 0°C), was used to indicate the density of ethylene carbonate.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Value used for CSA: 1.32 g/cm³ at 40°C

The values are in a close range. Three of them are reported to be determined at similar temperatures (39/40 °C). This value is thus considered reliable.
