Mean density ρPRfor the two test series: 1.4817 g/cm3

 

The relative density of the test item at 20 °C (compared with water at 4 °C) was determined to be 1.48.

Conclusions:
The relative density at ambient temperature (compared to water at 4°C) was determined to be 1.48 (20 °C).
Executive summary:

A study was performed in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, method A.3 and OECD TG 109 by using the gas comparison pycnometer at 20 °C. Two tests were performed and the density of the test item was determined. The relative density of the test item (calculated from the mean density of the test item) was determined to be 1.48.

Description of key information

A study was performed in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, method A.3 and OECD TG 109 by using the gas comparison pycnometer at 20 °C. Two tests were performed and the density of the test item was determined. The relative density of the test item (calculated from the mean density of the test item) was determined to be 1.48.
