Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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


The mean density of the test item at 20 °C was 1.0818 g/cm³. The relative density D420 was calculated by dividing the density of the test item by the density of water at 4 °C (0.9999750 g/cm³).


The relative density was             D420 = 1.082.

Conclusions:
The relative density (D204) of the test item was found to be 1.082.
Executive summary:

The relative density was determined using a gas comparison pycnometer according to Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 Part A. Method A.3 and OECD Test Guideline 109 (2012) to determine the relative density of the test item. The mean density of the test item at 20 °C was 1.0818 g/cm³. The relative density D420 was calculated by dividing the density of the test item by the density of water at 4 °C. The relative density (D204) of the test item was found to be 1.082.

Description of key information

The relative density of the test item was found to be 1.082 (reference 4.4-1).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:

Additional information

The relative density was determined using a gas comparison pycnometer according to Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 Part A. Method A.3 and OECD Test Guideline 109 (2012) to determine the relative density of the test item. The mean density of the test item at 20 °C was 1.0818 g/cm³. The relative density was calculated by dividing the density of the test item by the density of water at 4 °C. The relative density at 20 °C with respect to water at 4 °C of the test item was found to be 1.082.
