Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Results and discussion

Density
Type:
relative density
Density:
ca. 7.29 g/cm³
Temp.:
20 °C

Any other information on results incl. tables

Since the temperature inside the pycnometer chamber was approximately 28.5° C (± 2 K) a correction was applied to calculate the density at 20°C.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Test carried out according to standard protocol, test results consistent, thus reliable for concluding on endpoint.
Executive summary:

The relative density of the test substance extrapolated at 20°C is: ρ20 = 7.290 g/cm³
