Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

* The pressurizing-expansion cycles are performed until 4 subsequent volume measurements have a relative standard deviation (RSD) of ≤ 0.2 %

Conclusions:
According to OECD Test Guideline 109 (2012), Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.3. and EPA OCSPP Test Guideline 830.7300 (2002), the relative density D_4^20 of the test item at 20 °C ± 0.01 °C (compared to water at 4 °C) is D_4^20 = 1.663.

Description of key information

According to OECD Test Guideline 109 (2012), Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.3. and EPA OCSPP Test Guideline 830.7300 (2002), the relative density D_4^20 of the test item at 20 °C ± 0.01 °C (compared to water at 4 °C) is D_4^20 = 1.663.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.663
