Measurement

(triple determination)

temperature in °C: 20 / 20 / 20

Weight of solid in air in g: 4.4159 / 4.6060 / 2.2977

Weight of solid in liquid in g: 3.9005 / 4.0651 / 2.0459

relative density: 0.894 / 0.893 / 0.900

Conclusions:
A relative density value of 0.896 at 20°C was determined for the substance using a relevant test method. The result is considered to be reliable.
Executive summary:

Tetracosanol was determined according DIN EN ISO 1183 -1. The relative density was determined to be 0.896 at 20°C.

Description of key information

The relative density of tetracosan-1-ol is 0.896 at 20°C. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.896

Additional information

A relative density value of 0.896 at 20°C was determined for the substance using a relevant test method. The result is considered to be reliable.

Discussion of trends in the Category of C6-24 linear and essentially-linear aliphatic alcohols:

The relative density values are similar across the category. Values are consistently within the range 0.80 - 0.90 at ambient temperature.
