other: mean of 3 replicate measurements.

The relative density determined in 3 replicate measurements are given here:

Replicate Temperature (°C) Relative density
1 20 1.0642
2 20 1.065
2 20 1.0651

The mean relative density at 20°C is 1.065, relative to water at 4°C.

Conclusions:
The test item has a relative density of 1.065 at 20°C, compared to water at 4°C.
Executive summary:

The relative density of the test substance was determined according to OECD 109, by an oscillating densitometer. Three replicate measurments were performed. The mean relative density of the test item was found to be 1.065 at 20°C, relative to water at 4°C.

Description of key information

For this endpoint, the relative density was determined experimentally according to OECD 109, using a oscillating densitometer. The relative density was determined to be 1.065 at 20°C, relative to water 4°C. This is in close correspondance with the relative density reported in the CRC Handbook (1993): 1.0639.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.065
