Endpoint:

density, other

Type of information:

experimental study

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

2008

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

test procedure in accordance with generally accepted scientific standards and described in sufficient detail

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

other: ASTM D-4052

Principles of method if other than guideline:

This test method covers the laboratory determination using a glass hydrometer of the density of petroleum products normally handled as liquids and having a Reid vapour pressure od 101.325 kPa or less. Values are measured at the reference temperature.

GLP compliance:

not specified
