Conclusions:
The density of the test substance is 1.61 g/cm3 (1610 kg/m3) at 25 °C.
Executive summary:

To determine the density of the test substance, a study was performed using the pycnometer method according to OECD TG 109 in compliance with GLP. The density was found to be 1.61 g/cm3 (1610 kg/m3) at 25 °C

Description of key information

Relative density 1.61 (corresponding to an absolute density of 1610 kg/m3) at 25 °C, OECD TG 109, pycnometer method, Husband 2001.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.61
