Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the density of the test substance using a pycnometer according to the OECD 109, EU A.3 and US EPA 830.7300 guidelines. Under the conditions of the study, the test substance was determined to have a density and relative density of 0.967 g/cm3 and 0.967 respectively at 20°C.

Description of key information

The density was determined using a pycnometer according to OECD Guideline 109, EU Method A.3 and US EPA Guideline 830.7300 (Baltussen, 2012).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.967
