Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key result
Type:
relative density
Density:
1.38 g/cm³
Temp.:
20 °C

Individual Measurement:

   Experiment 1  Experiment 2
 Density of Water at 20°C g/mL (X)  0.99821  0.99821
 Weight of Pycnometer g (A)  20.5949  22.7487
 Weight of Pycnometer g (A1)  20.5948  22.7487
 Weight of Pycnometer + Water g (B)  45.1158  47.6114
 Weight of Pycnometer + Test Item g (C)  54.4899  57.1173

Calculations for the Determination of Relative Density:

Density of water at 4°C = 1g/mL (Y)

1. Volume of pyncometer (mL) V= (B-A)

X

2. Density of test substance (g/mL) D1 =(C-A1)

V

Relative density = D1

Y

Using the values and the equations above, the relative density of the test item was calculated.

   Experiment 1  Experiment 2  Average D1
 Volume of Pycnometer mL (V)  24.5649  24.9073  
 Density of test substance g/mL (D1)  1.3798  1.3799  Rounded to 4 significant figures 1.3799
 Mean Relative Densuty  1.38 (rounded)     
Conclusions:
The relative density of the test item has been determined to be 1.38 ± 0.01°C at 20.0°C ±0.5°C
