Calibration and validity verification

The calibration was carried out on August 16, 2010.

The measured density of the calibration liquids at 20°C is mentioned in table 1. Also the deviation from the literature values is mentioned. The mean value for the calibration liquids agrees within ± 0.002 g/cm3(accuracy range) with the literature values.

The validity of the method was verified prior to the measurement with the test substance using demineralized water.

Measured density of water at 20°C:

measurement 1: 0.9982 g/cm3

measurement 2: 0.9982 g/cm3

measurement 3: 0.9982 g/cm3

These values agree within ± 0.0005 g/cm3with the literature value for demineralized water.

 

Density test substance

Measured density of the test substance at 20°C:

measurement 1: 0.8884 g/cm3

measurement 2: 0.8885 g/cm3

measurement 3: 0.8885 g/cm3

measurement 4: 0.8888 g/cm3 

Mean value at 20°C is 0.8886 g/cm3. The standard deviation is ± 0.0002 g/cm3. The relative density of the test substance is 0.8886.

Conclusions:
The relative density of 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl hydroperoxide at 20°C is 0.8886 (± 0.0002).
Executive summary:

The relativedensity of 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl hydroperoxide was determined in quadruplet according toEC Regulation No 440/2008, Guideline A.3 and according to OECD Guideline 109 , and in accordance with European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.7a, Endpoint specific guidance, May 2008.

The relative density of 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl hydroperoxide at 20°C is 0.8886 (± 0.0002).
