Conclusions:
The density of the test item Hydroxyacetone was calculated as 1.0828 ± 0.0002 g/cm3 at 20.0 ± 0.2 °C.
This value represents the mean of two independent determinations ± the standard deviation. Standard deviation shows good correlation of the two determinations.
Executive summary:

Using the pycnometer method, a density of 1.0828 ± 0.0002 g/cm3 at 20.0 ± 0.2 °C was measured according to OECD 109 resp. EU A.3 under GLP condiditons. This value is the mean of two independent determinations ± the standard deviation. Standard deviation shows good correlation of the two determinations.

Relative density of the test item at 20 °C to water at 4 °C is 1.0828.
