Specific details on test material used for the study:

STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL:
- At room temperature

OTHER SPECIFICS:
- Purity/composition correction factor: No correction factor required.
- Test item hanling: No specific handling conditions required, but for practical reason the test item could be kept on ice to avoid evaporation of the material before and between performance of physico-chemical tests.

Key result

Type:

bulk density

Density:

1.23 g/cm³

Temp.:

6 °C

Conclusions:

The density of 1,1,1-trifluoroacetone at 6ºC ± 1°C was 1.23 g/cm3.

Executive summary:

Measurement of the density of 1,1,1 -trifluoroacetone was performed using a volumetric flask according to standardised guidelines (OECD TG 109, EU A.3 and OPPTS 830.7300) under GLP conditions.

The test item is a volatile liquid with a boiling temperature of 20.5°C. It was observed that te density of the test item could not be experimentally determined at 20°C due to significant evaporation (gas bubbles) at about 19°C. The density of the test item was determined at a lower constant temperature of about 6°C.

The density of 1,1,1-trifluoroacetone at 6ºC ± 1°C was 1.23 g/cm³.
