The individual measurements were obtained with an accuracy of < 0.01 g/cm3. In according with the guideline, the density of the test item is thus given as the mean value.

Conclusions:
The mean density of the test item was 2.50 g/cm3 at 20°C; the mean relative density was 2.50.
Executive summary:

The relative density of the test item was determined in a GLP-compliant study performed in accordance with EC A.3 Method and OECD Guideline No. 109, using the pycnometer method. The mean density of the test item was 2.50 g/cm3 at 20°C; the mean relative density was 2.50.

Three references (coming from the same database) have been found for the density of the test substance. One density value was considered less reliable than the two others, because the temperature at which this value was determined was not specified.

That's why the density of the test substance is considered to be 2.4912 g/cm3 at 25°C

Conclusions:
The density of the test substance is 2.4912g/cm3 at 25°C.
Executive summary:

Two literature references (obtained in the same database) give the same value for the density of the test substance: 2.4912 g/cm3at 25°C

Description of key information

The relative density of the test item was determined in a GLP-compliant study performed in accordance with EC A.3 Method and OECD Guideline No. 109, using the pycnometer method. The mean density of the test item was 2.50 g/cm3 at 20°C; the mean relative density was 2.50. These experimental values are further supported by data from the literature.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
2.5

Additional information

The relative density of the test item was determined in a GLP-compliant study performed in accordance with standard methods, without deviations. The study is considered as reliable (Klimisch 1) and is selected as a key study for the endpoint. Literature data are also reported for the endpoint and selected as supporting studies (Klimisch 4).
