Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Where:

w1= weight of empty pycnometer (g)

w2= weight of pycnometer and water (g)

w3= weight of pycnometer and displacement liquid (g)

w4= weight of pycnometer and test item (g)

w5= weight of pycnometer, test item and displacement liquid (g)

W1 = Mass of water to fill pycnometer

W2 = Mass of displacement liquid to fill pycnometer

W3 = Mass of test item added to pycnometer

W4 = Mass of displacement liquid required to fill pycnometer containing W3g of test item

W5 = Mass of displacement liquid equivalent to W3g of test item

ptl= density of displacement liquid at temperature of determination (g/mL)

Dt4= relative density of test item at test temperature compared to water at 4°C

Conclusions:
The relative density of the test item was determined to be 1.01 at 20 °C.
Executive summary:

The relative density of the test item was determined in a study following OECD 109 and EC Method A.3 guidelines, using the pycnometer method. The relative density of the test item was determined to be 1.01 at 20 °C.

The study is a GLP compliant, guideline experimental study and is fully acceptable for assessment of this endpoint.

Description of key information

The relative density of the test item was determined to be 1.01 at 20 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.03

Additional information

The relative density of the test item was determined in a study following OECD 109 and EC Method A.3 guidelines, using the pycnometer method (Dunning 2018).

The study is a GLP compliant, guideline experimental study and is fully acceptable for assessment of this endpoint.
