Conclusions:
The relative density of the test item has been determined to be 1.03 at 20.0 ± 0.5°C.
Executive summary:

1.03 at 20.0 ± 0.5°C, using the pycnometer method, designed to be compatible with Method A3 Relative Density of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 109 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995.

Description of key information

The relative density of the substance was determined to be 1.03; study conducted in accordance with OECD 109 and EU Method A.3; Fox and White (2011)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.03

Additional information

In a GLP compliant density study conducted in accordance with standardised guidelines, the relative density of the test substance was determined using the pycnometer method. Under the conditions of the test, the relative density of the substance was determined to be 1.03 at 20 ± 0.5ºC.
