GUIDELINE
Relative density was determined using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method 109 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 02 October 2012, and Method A.3 Relative Density of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.
METHOD
Relative density was determined using the gas comparison pycnometer method. After suitable calibration using reference cells, a test sample was measured in triplicate at 20 °C, and the mean relative density was calculated.
RESULTS
Reproducibility of less than ± 20 kg/m3 was obtained during two determinations.
CONCLUSION
The density of the test item was determined to be 909 kg/m3 at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C and a relative density of 0.909.

CALIBRATION
- Pressure readings and the calculated volume for the reference and sample cells are shown in Table 3.4 (attached).
- As the reference cell volume and sample cell volume were within the defined tolerances (90.953± 1.0 cm3 and 149.225± 1.0 cm3 for the reference and sample cells respectively), the gas compression pycnometer was considered acceptable for use.
SAMPLE
- The mass of the vessel, vessel and test item, and the calculated mass of test item are shown in Table 3.6 (attached).
- Pressure readings obtained for the vessel and vessel containing test item are shown in Table 3.7 (attached).
- The calculated volumes and density obtained are shown in Table 3.8 (attached).
DISCUSSION
- Due to the test item's viscosity, it was considered that the pycnometer method for liquids would be impractical.
- Therefore, test item was transferred into glass vessels which would fit inside the sample cell of the gas comparison pycnometer and melted
- The samples were then allowed to solidity by equilibration to 20°C for at least one hour.
- Two determinations were performed to ensure a reproducibility of less than±20 kg/m3 was obtained.
Description of key information
The density of the analogue test item was determined to be 909 kg/m3 at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C with a relative density of 0.909.
