Remarks on result:
other: relative density D4/20 = 1.37

Two tests with different amounts of the test item were performed to determine the relative density D420 at a temperature of 20 °C ± 0.01 °C.

Results of the measurement of the density of the test item

Test No. Temperature [°C] Amount of test item [g] Average sample volume [cm³] Density [g/cm³]*
1 20 8.72 6.37212 1.36846
2 20 9.05 6.59420

1.37242

* The pressurizing-expansion cycles are performed until 5 subsequent volume measurements have a relative standard deviation (RSD) of ≤ 0.2 %.

The mean density of the test item at 20 °C is 1.37044 g/cm³ ± <0.01 g/cm³ (RSD = 0.14 %). The relative density D420 is calculated by dividing the density of the test item by the density of water at 4 °C (0.9999750 g/cm³).

The relative density is       D420 = 1.37.

Conclusions:
According to OECD Test Guideline 109 (2012), Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.3. and OCSPP Test Guideline 830.7300 (2002), the relative density D4/20 of the test item fatty acids, C9-C13-neo, barium salts at 20 °C ± 0.01 °C (compared to water at 4 °C) is D4/20 = 1.37.

Description of key information

According to OECD Test Guideline 109 (2012), Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.3. and OCSPP Test Guideline 830.7300 (2002), the relative density D420 of the test item fatty acids, C9-C13-neo, barium salts at 20 °C ± 0.01 °C (compared to water at 4 °C) is D420 = 1.37.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.37
